    Are there any transcodeing programs like DVD Shrink that make use of all four cores of a quad CPU?

    The list of true transcoding programs like Shrink is very short, and few are updated any more. All I can think of at the moment are

    DVD Shrink (not updated)
    ReJig (not updated in some time)
    Nero Recode (Commercial, updated)

    I actually find that the time difference between transcoding with Shrink, and re-encoding with HCEnc on a quad core is not so great, and I use DVD Rebuilder on the few occasions I still do this.

    I always thought that programs like CloneDVD, DVDFab, 1ClickDVDCopy, and DVD neXt COPY worked in a similar fashion to DVDShrink. Is that not true?

    Don't use them, so I don't know their ability to use extra cores.

    I have never had the need to use commercial tools for this type of thing because the free offerings do such a good job.
