So, I recently I made a different template to use in Vegas to upload to Youtube 1080p 30fps. When I rendered out my video I was shocked how quickly it completed compared to my older .mp4 and .avi templates.
this saved me hours per video and I am not exaggerating. Quality was never effected in anyway, if anything it actually looks even better!

Sony AVC/MVC (.mp4)

Video Format: AVC
Frame Size: 1920x1080
Allow source to adjust frame Size: Unchecked
Profile: High
Entropy Encoding: CABAC
Frame Rate: 30.00000
Allow source to adjust frame rate: Unchecked
Field Order: None (progressive scan)
Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1.0000
Bit Rate (bps): 12,000,000
Number of Slices: 1
Encode mode: CPU Only
Enable Progressive Download: Checked

Audio
Include Audio: umm yeah!
Audio Format: AAC
Sample Rate (Hz): 48,000
Bit rate (bps): 128,000
Audio Coding Mode: Stereo


The file size is now even smaller which is a plus if you don't have High Speed Upload like myself
Try it out for yourself and let me know what you think
What do you guys think? I am still pretty new to Vegas.

Old render times 4hr+
Now Less than 1hr (I go make a coffee make the Thumbnail and its complete!)
Old File size 2-4gb
New File size ~1gb
UPLOAD TIMES
Old ~12hours
New 2 Hours!

CPU only encoding..? Why you not using that CUDA! (or AMD's option if you have them)

although the new version is way better, I'm still concerned about the 2 hour render for a 30fps video and the fact you're only using your cpu unless your computer doesn't support it.

A big space saver is using OBS to record instead of Dxtory or FRAPS. It can be as low as 1 GB per 1 hour of footage pre-edited.

I'm going to guess that the OP has a Nvidia GPU released in the last 3 years.

I had the same issue in Sony Movie Studio. It claims (in the software test) that it supports CUDA on all Nvidia cards - but in actual fact Sony never implemented the newer NVENC encoder Nvidia developed.

Sony only supported up to the Firmi architecture for CUDA, so anyone with a Nvidia 600 series or newer GPU is stuck on CPU rendering. This is very frustrating as Nvidia announced NVENC in 2010 or 11, launched it March 2012 and Sony refreshed both Vegas and Movie Studio in 2014 - they had ample time to support NVENC.

Owch! Happy I use Premiere now, terrible idea to not implement it...
