Default Re: Video Format: Encoded Size vs. Display Size?

It doesn't perform well. A little choppy, AVE reads 160% CPU usage. Converted the video with Media Encoder to one of my DNx presets to this:

DNxHD
bit rate 147 Mbit/s
progressive
encoded size 1920 x 1080
display size 1920 x 1080


And now AVE is using 80% CPU. I've run into this "encoded size" issue before. What's happening? Or is it the interlacing that's causing the AVE problem?
Sound like you are transcoding to an extreme DNxHD bitrate. Try DNxHD36. (1920x1080 @ 36Mbit/s) very light CPU usage and looks just fine for sound work.

Unless you are projecting super-big 36 is plenty for sound work.
