I have this dialog box on exporting video.

Question: how can I find out what time it took to export video, if I was drinking tea when video was rendering and I could not catch the moment when it was done. Maybe there are some log file or some option to show total time?

Hi

 

The window is slightly different in Version 4.48......

......and doesn't show any times at all.

 

However, all files in Windows show the data you require.

Right click the file in question and then take the "Properties" option (at the bottom with Vista)

1 is the exact time you started the export.

2 is the exact time that the export was completed.

Nat, you are genius!!

That is do simple and so effective trick!!

Thank you so much.

 

By the way,

here is some usefull tip for this Nat's solution.

Everytime we playback video, system puts new update time (new timestamp on file).

 

This is feature of OS Windows can be desabled by this command in Win + R window:

 

> fsutil behavior set disablelastaccess 1

 

I tuned off timestamp update not because of Videopad, but because of SSD.

When this option is turned off, there a much less useless writes IO operations on files and therefore SSD lives longer.

 

But now we see, that there additional usefull feature:

we can see how much real time it took to render final video.

 

Nat, great thank you once more!!
