Is there any way for faster encoding??

[damaster]

Hey, for a while I have been encoding moviez, about 10, and encoding usally takes 6-7 hours for an 1 1/2min movie. And about 8-10 hours for a 2 1/2min movie. My system is pretty week its a PII 400Mz, with a Plexor 8/4/32. I was just wondering if by changing somthing in the encoding device (TMPG) it would go faster. Thankz for any replys

Not much you can do beyond getting a faster processor. You might try Cinemacraft encoder -- it's the fastest. Using TMPGEnc I get about 10fps encoding on a 1Ghz Athlon Thunderbird processor...

you want fast?
stripe raid your hard disks
i tested it with an Iwill KA266-R DDR
512 megs of ram
1.2 ghz 200 fsb 256 cache (one of the first ones)
2 40 gig 7200 rpm ata 100 Raid stripe array

with raid = 3 1/2 hours to rip Crow salvation from DVD to a beautiful VCD

without raid on same PC = 6 horrible hours and 45 minuts

i dont know the FPS or nuttin like dat
i just do what the guides say and go

from what i understand and read in school,
intel p3 holds 64 gigabytes of internal memory
whilst AMD athlon/duron/tbird holds 8 terabytes
dont believe that??
