Have you tried premiere? I find it does a much better job for encoding/t= ranscoding footage than ae, esp if you have a cuda enabled card. It will re= nder h264 fully threaded for me, vs ae which seems finicky as to which proj= ects will render mt

Also do you have any non mt effects running?

Hey all. I've spent a good bit of this mo= nth upgrading and tweaking my computer's settings to get the most out o= f multiprocessing in After Effects. =A0

I'm cu= rrently working on a project that is pretty graphically intensive and it= 9;s great to get the most out of my hardware.=A0

I go to make a final render for my client, who is using= AVID for editing, and my computer chugs along one frame at a time instead = of using multiprocessing for the render. =A0 In AE I can RAM preview with f= ull MP support, but this codec (DNxHD) and a few others I've found(like= QuickTime PNG codec) seem to completely bypass multiprocessing and end up = taking over an hour or more for something that should have only taken 10 mi= nutes or less to render out.=A0

Am I completely alone in this? Is there any way around = this without spending more time on the back-end transcoding videos into the= codec my client needs?

Is there some magic settin= g I can check to use MP on these kinds of codecs? Or am I stuck in single p= rocessor mode?

Thanks for all the tips= guys. I'm currently evaluating most of the ones suggested. I will repo= rt back on what we decide to go with.
