I'm not sure what you mean by rendering here, but if you mean changing frame dimensions, transposing, or other compute intensive operations, I think you have described the problem below. Commercial enterprises use render farms to do these operations, and even they take a long time. You could look for articles about places like Pixar to see if they mention the computing power they use to get a better idea. > > Please recommend a super fast video editing software for Fedora 31 > Linux which can do 4K video rendering significantly faster. I don't think there is such a thing. I use a program called avidemux3 to do simple editing, but I have never used it on 4k. There is a program called ffmpeg, and if anything is going to be fast, it is, but it is a command line program, where you request via options what you want done, and it does it.

More power means faster, but it means the software has to be aware of how to use that power (parallel processing). Is the software you are using parallel aware? If it isn't, adding more horsepower is a waste of money, as it won't be used. Does it say anything about maximum cores it can use? _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
