How long does it take to make a conversion?
As a rule of thumb, presume that one minute of video takes one minute of rendering. So for a ten-minute movie, the first conversion will be available in ten minutes.
Smaller videos (less than 300 pixels wide) render faster. Videos that are over 700 pixels wide render noticable slower.
We are constantly tweaking the predictions (about 5 minutes...) the CMS gives when building conversions, but given the huge differences between video formats this is a trial-and-error task.
