Multi-threading?

[foopot]

What does the 'Thread' option under mpeg2enc OPTIONS tab do? It sounds like if I have a dual-CPU Mac and I choose 'dual cpu' from the drop down, it might encode faster for the same quality level than if it were just left set to standard for one CPU. Is this true, or is it some kind of quality option that affects the video being encoded instead? I tried a search and found nothing; help page wasn't much help either. Thanks in advance!

Yes, it is meant to encode with mpeg2enc engine with a dual-CPU.

Thanks so much! I'll give it a try next encode.
