CCE BASIC vs TMPGEnc Plus vs TMPGEnc12a (speed comparison)

[ktnwin]

Has some one benchmarked these three software in term of DV AVI to MPEG-2 (for DVD) conversion ?
Does anyone have the numbers (speed comparison) ?

If you are referring to the old TMPG beta, I found it about half as fast as my 2.58 version. I guess that's about on par with BBMpeg. I can't speak for CCE....

No, TMPGEnc 12a beta isn't THAT slow.

No, TMPGEnc 12a beta isn't THAT slow.

It was the last time I tried it....

I'm currently working on a comparison between some encoders(ccebasic, tmpgenc2.521,tmpgenc12a,mainconcept,procoderexpres s). I'm testing CBR, 2passVBR and also high-quality and default-quality settings.

1 minute PAL DV Clip converted to PAL MPEG2 with avg 4000kbit/s

CCE Basic
CBR - 52 sec
VBR - 104 sec

Mainconcept (default quality setting)
CBR - 59 sec
VBR - 66 sec

Mainconcept (high quality setting)
CBR - 283 sec
VBR - 283 sec

Tmpgenc2521 (motion search precision: motion estimate search)
CBR - 112 sec
VBR - 230 sec

Tmpgenc2521 (motion search precision: high quality)
CBR - 217 sec
VBR - 429 sec

Tmpgenc12a (motion search precision: normal)
CBR - 210 sec
VBR - 400 sec

I haven't tested procoder express yet. I will also do some video quality comparison later and make a table so you can easily compare them.

ProCoder is the fastest .Well Ok just the red version ... :P

[vesterlee]

do procoder convert xvid to mpeg, and if so can it rezise like tmpgenc to lees than 70mbs

[reboot]

Canopus Procoder can do more than TMPGEnc, and usually do it faster.

Baldrick,
thank you so much for taking time to perform this benchmark tests.
It will give us more infos when choosing a software encoder.
Thanks again.

This is cool, I look forward to your further results.
