I am sure the setting will change speed as well. But just wondering if it is worth investing in a better computer? Thank you.

    18 Hours? are you kidding me? ..... do a search for a "crappy rendering" and see if that might meet your needs.

    The videos we watch are not 100% gold, but if we find a gold nugget, the time spent viewing has a value.

    We can please some of the people some of the time, but we can't please all the people all of the time..... but I will keep trying.
