How long should it take to create?

Hello there,

Just wondering how long a video should take to create in the Workout Blender? I have a fairly new and fast computer, having no problems downloading/uploading files in a reasonable amount of time. Unfortunately, it always takes 3+ hours to create a video :confused: Is this the norm?

I installed the WB about 6 months ago. There were always little glitches here and there which had me refrain from using the program as much as I've wanted to. Would you suggest I re-install it? Please advise.

Thank you,

Natasha
 
The ability to download or upload a video file has nothing to do with the amount of time it will take to create a premix in the Workout Blender. The speed of the Workout Blender is mainly determined by two things 1: Computer Horsepower and 2: The Video files selected.

In the Workout Blender if you select files that are encoded exactly the same, like all of the workouts in the Low Impact Series, it should take only a few minutes to create a 1 hour premix video on a good system. This means that if you blend chapters from say Athletic Training with AfterBurn the encode will happen quickly since these files are all encoded at the same rate. However, if you try to make a 1 hour Premix with Athletic Training and Cardio Kicks this Premix will take much longer because the original files are not encoded at the same rate and must be re-encoded by the WB so that they will be the same. This takes time and several hours is not uncommon.
