    Speedgrade slows down Media Encoder by 4 times?

    federatedfilms Community Member

      When I export a video from Premiere Pro CC (7.2.2) of a 1920x1080 to Vimeo 720 HD preset to Media encoder a 7 minute video encodes at almost realt time at 8 minutes on my Mid 2012 - 12 Core mac pro with NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 2048 MB (CUDA Enabled) and when I monitor the CPU % for Media Encoder via Activity Monitor it ranges around 1,000% - great!

       

      I then use Speedgrade and also add a mask to my video for a vignette around the whole shot and it adds the Lumetri effect to my timeline; I then render and it takes 1 hour to render my 7 minute video and my CPU for media encoder is now running at 250%

       

      Any idea why the CPU power is reduced to 4 times slower when using the Lumetri effect?

       

      TIA
