Hi,
Just purchased CT8...I created a 3+ minute talking head from a photograph including background music...it's rendering less than one frame every 5 minutes ,
I'm nearly 70 years old ...at this rate I'll be dead or 100yo before I can use it..I must be missing something...please help!
Cheers
Peter

Hi Peter,

Sorry to hear of your problems with CrazyTalk 8.

Something is obviously not right. Rendering to video should only take a few minutes.

I would try restarting you computer and then make sure CrazyTalk 8 is the only program open and try rendering again. It would also be worth trying all the different export formats (wmv, avi, mp4 etc.) to see if the problem is with just one of them. Do also make sure that the drive to are rendering to has plenty of free space.

If you still have problems, please can you share your system specifications including graphic card. Thanks.

Hi Peter,
Thank you..I will do.
I  love the software...It is so user friendly..it only took a minute to organise my clip first attempt.
I will get back to you.
Cheers
Peter

I see you have a laptop and I think your integrated Intel HD 4000 graphics is the problem. See the requirements here (bottom of page): https://www.reallusion.com/crazytalk/download.html.

The Intel graphics would meet the minimum requirements (which are really minimum in that you can open the program), but the recommend requirements include dedicated AMD or Nvidia graphics cards.

Time and again we have asked for RL to make minimum requirements more realistic to avoid disappointments such as yours.

Hi Animagic,
Thank you.
I'll install it on my new computer and see if it's up to scratch.
Cheers

p.s.
I also have an AMD...quad ...WINDOWS 8.1 64 bit....the program wouldn't open at all.
