Hmmmm, where to begin. There are a lot of questions that need to be answered before proper troubleshooting can be done.

- What version of Final Cut Pro or Express are you using?
- What camera are you using?
- What is your workflow for capturing your footage?
- What format is your footage?
- What are your sequence settings? If you have to render an entire sequence (timeline) that is a good indication that your sequence settings do not match your footage.

Since your current render times are taking a while, you would do yourself a lot of good to use that time to read through the manuals. They provide a lot more information than can be provided here.
