With a licensed VideoPad, I've tried three times to export a 34-second video, and after an hour I click "Cancel" and try a lower resolution.
First Try: HD 1080
Second Try: HD 720
Third Try: YouTube 480
This is with
i7 3.6 GHz processor
Dedicated 3GB graphics card
32GB RAM
...and minimal background proceses.
This video has no audio track. Just one track with video and two with short captions. No heavy lifting.
Each time, the progress gets to 99%, but never completes (within an hour). Any ideas?
