Render Booster

Post by Rte80west »

Using the S4000 w/ latest Bogart & Arabesk versions.

Just received Render Booster the other day and loaded up per the instructions (did not do a destructive install). Typically it takes me ~ 36 hours to prep a ~ 170 minute film to burn to Blu Ray. With Render Booster, it took ~ 12 hours before being ready to burn but upon burning it only burned ~ 10 minutes or so of footage (based upon looking at the back of the disc where the "writing" is). I have not tried to view it yet.

Is there something I did wrong with setting up Render Booster? The words "Render Booster" showed up in Arabesk and the device was lit and got hot so I assume it was working. i did not a destructive install of hard drive before trying to use - do I need to?

Any ideas appreciated.

What settings did you use in the Arabesk settings window and what OS version are you using??

Hello,

I don't have a render booster yet, my S-6000 came with render booster software
already installed in it...... but every time I turn it on, it has a message that says,
I need to do a BIOS update to allow it to work properly, and to check with my dealer
or the Cassie web site for instructions.

Have you done this step for the render booster on your editor?

There are only a few machines that need a BIOS update and, if needed, you do get this message.
