How to use all four cores?

[njsutorius]

Hello

I would like to know if someone can recomend a certain conversion software based on the fact that it will use all four of my cores on my q6600 processor.

I have tested conversion with a program called videora ipod conversion, and it did tap all four cores on my processor, however i need to convert AVI - DVD not to ipod.

I have also attempted to use convertxtodvd but this seemed to only use one core.

Thanks for your help.

FAVC using HCEnc uses all four cores. The latest version uses 0.22 of HCEnc, which is multi-threaded and will use all four cores to around 70% for 2-pass VBR, which is great if you want to use the machine for browsing etc at the same time. If you use Predictive Quantisation and manually select 4 cores, it will use all 4 to 100%. I can encode a full length video to DVD mpeg-2 in around 15 minutes, and completes the authoring process in around 30 minutes from go to woe.

The beta of ConvertXtoDVD 3 now uses multiple cores. Version 2 did not.
