He wasn't sure whether the 8 bit 422 raw quicktime export I have set as default output in the benchmark was actually 64 bit enabled, as AE has had issues in the past with quicktime libraries. I thought those had been resolved but maybe not. So I have two questions: - Is there a better default codec to render to within AE? I wanted to avoid image sequences because the "render and replace usage" feature is used several times, and also because it's a bit more complicated for the end user. I was trying to keep things as idiot proof as possible. - What render codecs provide the least bottleneck in terms of output? i.e. What outputs are fully threaded and 64 bit enabled? Is the QT 8bit 422 sufficient? One would think that because the renders do seem to use 100% of available resources when exporting that it is, in fact, 64 bit. I am going to be doing some tests with image sequences and DNX export to see what happens -TG -- _____________________________ VFX & Motion Graphic Artist teddygage dot com --20cf30050b22c030f804f6251fe7 Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
