Hi Dean,
I tried to replicate this issue and here is what I got:
Testing Machine:
Windows 7
8 GB RAM
4th Gen Core i5 CPU @2 Ghz
Intel 4400 HD Graphics (GPU Acceleration OpenCL)
In my testing,
- I used a 5184 * 3456 JPEG image and
- I stretched the JPEG along 6 minutes with both the effects applied (and a stereo audio track)
Results:
Scenario I: Both effects turned on
- I exported it to Youtube 1080p resulting in an estimated file size of 794 MB with an export time of about 13 hours.
Scenario II: Wave Warp turned off
- I turned off the Wave Warp effect and exported again (keeping everything else exactly the same). The export time was around 13 minutes this time.
Scenario III: Echo turned off
- I turned off the Echo effect and turned the Wave Warp effect back on. The export time was around 5 hours.
I also used smaller JPEG images and the export times decreased considerably ranging between a few hours to a few minutes. So, i think the size of the JPEG does matter because IMO, if we use a JPEG with more than 1920 pixels stretched across 6 minutes, it technically turns into a 6 min Quad HD or Ultra HD video (depending upon the resolution of the image) and with those effects turned on it would definitely takes hours to export the video.
I tested it on Premiere Pro CC 2015 and CC 2014 with both versions ending up with almost similar results.
I may not have exactly used the same workflow as yours. So, please let me know if there is anything different i can test.
I've also asked Kevin-Monahan to reproduce this. Let's see what he's got.
Thanks,
Rameez
