    <title>Understanding rendering</title>
     
     <p>Rendering is the process of exporting your project into a new, finalized media file. Rendering only creates a new “rendered” video file, and does not affect the project itself; you can still make edits to your project and render again as many times as needed.</p>
     <steps>
      <item><p>From the <gui>Project</gui> menu, use <gui>Render</gui>.</p></item>
      <item><p>Adjust the various encoding settings, if needed, to use settings different from the project settings.</p></item>
      <item><p>Click the <gui>Render</gui> button.</p></item>
     </steps>
     <note style="bug">
      <p>If your computer is set to suspend or hibernate automatically, <app>Pitivi</app> will automatically inhibit the power saving features during the render process.</p>
