Particularly slow enode

Post by ckronengold »

Description of problem or question:
I recently switched to encoding with a "slow" setting that has been taking about 5 hours for a movie. I'm not in a particular rush, and any benefit in quality is worth the compromise. But I'm currently running an encode that is set to take 10 hours and I can't figure out why. Its not an action movie and its not film-based, so grain shouldn't be an issue.

Curious if its just this particular title or if there's something that I may have missed or accidentally changed that would cause a 10 hour encode.

A 2:1 encode speed ratio using the same settings isn't that unexpected, my guess is the source file is particularly grainy (and widescreen instead of the typical "ultra-wide" cinema format, so there's about 30% more pixels to encode than for most movies).

The 5 hours wasn't surprising. But out of nowhere, this particular title jumped to 10.
I didn't think the film looked particularly grainy when I first looked at it, but I guess I was wrong.

"How will the film's grainy 35mm images look blown up to a much larger format? Paul Thomas Anderson's experiment with film projection continues apace."
