Main Concept MPEG2 encoder

[Toogy]

What are your thoughts on this? I have been using Vegas Video alot lately and really like the program for editing. I have the Main Concept MPEG plugin for it and have tried it a few times and it looks ok to me. What are the expert opinions here? The reason I ask is because I am capturing 2 hour videos, doing some minor editing and then I have to render the track as an avi file (takes a few hours) and then go to TMPGenc and encode (VBR 2-pass DVD settings) and it takings like 12-14 hours!!
If I use VV3 I can encode in less than 7 hours.

What are your thoughts?

I want to try CCE but for the life of me I can't fine a copy anywhere.

Thanks!

That was exactly what I was looking for.

It's funny because I noticed the same thing about file size. I captured just over 2 hours of footage and was concerned that it might not fit on a single DVD but the total file size is 3.9 GB!

Thanks again.
