as i said...codec...version 5.1 didn't use the DV codec. right? version 5.1 was analog. 6.5 uses firewire (DV) to capture. that's the main difference. there's even an internal codec change from 6.5 to PPro 1.5 which uses the MainConcept DV codec. so say you bring in an indeo coded file into premiere and then export DV even without effects that's going to take a bit because of the codec change.
so to recap- rendering is a CPU intensive process. factors that affect time are codec, frame rate, frame size, effects, fades and transitions. another thing since you did mention...you made an OS change from 98 to XP. windows XP is a memory hog and is constantly accessing the drive, RAM, and the CPU. you may need to go into it and shut some things down. go here for more info... http://www.videoguys.com and read their tweaks page. --- In [email protected], "avantnewt" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Since I'm using the same computer with the same processor, > theoretically, shouldn't my rendering take about the same time with my > AP 6.5, XP and 1 GB RAM as it did with my AP 5.1, W98, 250 mb RAM?
