Hi folks,

Earlier this week I installed Bogart 5 and Arabesk 5.4a with the Render Booster on my S4000p. And yes it all works. BlueRay rendering is so much faster, I've not timed it but its around the figures claimed. And what pleases me so much is the quality of the finished video is so much better. Both for BlueRay and most importantly for HD to SD on DVD. I've not tried multiple films yet but one film per disc with start menu works OK. Dalco UK supplied the software, the Render Booster and installation instructions, these are menu screen shots. Files exported in H.264 play perfectly in my universal player off a memory stick.

Alan, on that little island just off the west coast of Europe.

So Alan let me ask you a question,so in my experience every 1 hour BLUE RAY encoding, takes aprox 7 to 10 hours before goes to burn,so
what will be the stimate time in maybe 1 hour from HD to Blue Ray with the RENDER BOOSTER?, what about the finish process to
1 hour projet (render the hd video) to then go to a HDV TAPE ? I have the s-6000.

Thanks in advance !!...Franklin

Hi Franklin,

just to give you some info about render times using the Render Booster here
a note about a test of a user in German MS Forum.

A 57min HD film from 1440x1080i project was added to Arabesk5.4a
Blu-ray 12MBit/s
Render time with render Booster 1h and 10 min = 70min

My first HD project to BluRay disc is 10 Min. long. I did not time it but I guess the render time was about as claimed in the instructions I had from Martin of between 1.2 and 1.5 times the project length.

I've read your question again.

I think the render booster only works when trans-coding to an external device. Disc, USB stick and hard drive. HDV compiling before exporting to tape is internal. I do not think the booster is in use for internal processing.

Alan.

Correct Alan.

With the new Render Booster the 'finish' option isn't actually accelerated but 'all' the Arabesk stuff is.
Therefore (I think) in future people will just go straight to Arabesk, as it's a much quicker job, and then use the Project Back-up (or OPT in the EDit window) to "save" files individually as these function also can be boosted.

As for going back to tape, via the Finish menu, I'm afraid it's business as usual
