1. Re: Media Encoder VERY Slow With Neat Denoiser Effect Applied
SAFEHARBOR11 Dec 2, 2014 6:35 AM (in response to alexdejesus)Video DeNoiser plug-ins are notoriously slow by their nature, this is not Adobe's fault. Each HD frame of video has millions of pixels in it, and each pixel needs to be compared to those in the frames before and after to make a determination as to what is "image" and what is "noise" and the resulting clean image then needs to be calculated. Motion in the video complicates the process.
I use Red Giant DeNoiser II and which is now GPU-accelerated to make it a few times faster than it used to be, but it still takes many hours to do an entire program. Just how it is.
My suggestion is to apply the DeNoiser filter to the raw video clip prior to editing, to create a new (clean) clip using a lossless intermediate codec. Let that process run overnight. Then use that new clip for the editing without lag and with fast (normal) export times. If I apply denoiser in the timeline, everything grinds to a halt! Previews suck. I just process the raw clip in After Effects, export to Lagarith codec for instance (on PC), then edit that in Premiere. Mac users may want to use ProRes. Avid DNxHD is another good codec for Mac or PC.

alexdejesus Dec 2, 2014 8:54 AM (in response to SAFEHARBOR11)Yes that looks like the only workaround. I tried it. It is DNxHD footage so not sure if that adds to the time or not. Results are okay. thanks

alexdejesus Dec 3, 2014 10:19 PM (in response to alexdejesus)I contacted Neat and they are perplexed. My render times are very slow even by their standards and according to what is expected from my system specs. No solution, yet
