VS PRO-4 saving project takes minutes

[deerke]

Today I have a lucky day by finding the reason why X4 saving project costs minutes each time I do. I bought special to be as fast as possible a Medion Pentium 5 SSD harddrive computer and installed the Videostudio software all on the SSD drive to get as much speed as possible for editing, rendering, etc....
But last few month it did take minutes to save a project each time I did and could not find the reason why. I did change directories and locations on the harddrives and lots of other things to get it good to work, but now I have found the reason, it is the smartsound track what makes the problem. Without smartsound music everything works ok with saving projects in seconds.
As my computer is fast and i have installed everything as should, does some-one know reason that this happens and which action to take to recover the problem??

Other Thing what makes problems is the 15 minutes limit for youtube in videostudio. I have more than 90 movies now at youtube, but have to upload them outside videostudio because their lengt of more than 15 minutes.
Some movies are more than one houre and at youtube goes everything well without any problems.

If anyone knows what the problem is with the smartsound I write here, please reply.

Hi

Yes Smart Sound does seem to slow down the editing process, also the final renders are much slower.
At least that’s my observation.
I convert the Smart Sound clip to a Wav to replace the SS clip.

How
Immediately after adding the sound clip (the clip is selected) I navigate to the last frame in the project.
Click the word “project” adjacent to the play button, then press the End button, takes the curser to the last frame.
Press Add to Timeline from SS panel, adds a copy of the clip

Set preview range---Click the word “project”
Click the Square Bracket (F3) for “mark in” this sets the preview range
Share Create Sound file
Options to set “Preview range” only (important)
Save will save a wav file, a thumbnail being placed in the library.
Delete Smart Sound copy.
Reset the preview range Press Home (takes curser to first frame) then F3
Notice the white bar below the preview screen.
Navigate to the original clip and replace with new wav, drag from library.
I usually drop it above (voice track) and then delete the lower.

You Tube
Yes using Video Studio the limit is 15 minutes, not so long ago when it was 10 minutes.
I use X4 to create the video files, then logon to my own account to upload.
