just got my firewire hooked up at last and grabed my wifes play that I filmed on mini DV loaded up the onld windows media maker and HOLLY 200 min to render the darn thing.... YEEEEEEEk :scared:

Wow - that must have been one LONG play!!!

Did your project settings match your source?

the play was 120min long my wife wrote it about 15 years back when she was living in NY, just a heads up she is from Poland so you just think of what she must have been thinking about the USA after landing in NY lol Yeeeeeek.

Indie I shot it on a DV and the file size after I did the conversion was well over a gig so I resized it down to 800mb thinking it would be a lit bit more fast on the render but :O( no go on that.
