Constant 100% CPU load when using VideoStudio 2020

Post by Scott Vodrey »

Hi,

I hope one of you can help me with the truly abysmal experience I am having with VideoStudio 2020 Ultimate. My computer isn't the fastest thing around but it isn't a slouch. This program brings my computer to its knees after 5 minutes when working on a video no longer than 5 minutes! Is this common and is there anything I can do about it?

Thank you,

Scott

Welcome to the forum, Scott. But we're going to need more information from you about the format of the video you are editing. Right click on a video clip in the VS timeline or library window, select Properties and take a screen shot and post it here as an Attachment or at least type out the Properties manually.

And what edits are you making to it? Some filters are very resource-intensive...

Are you using SmartProxy?

At what stage of the editing does the 100% occur? Just any stage of the editing or during rendering?
