CCE times

[jaw2957]

I am thinking about upgrading from my 850 athlon with 256mb sdram. I was just wondering what kind of encoding times others with more powerful machines are getting, so I can find out if its worth my time(I have 300 dvd's to copy!!). I am using cce sp 2.5, and on average I get a speed of about .575. So each pass is nearly twice the length of the movie.

Hi there,

I have Athlon TB 1.4GHz and 512MB RAM. When I encode to MPEG-1 with 325x240 I get 1.5xx, with MPEG-2 I get 0.89x.

Sorry, I wasn't clear, I was talking about mpeg-2 times. WildParadise, is that 3 hrs 45min per pass, or is it the total? From your system specs you should be getting alot faster encoding times if that is for 1 pass? Thanks for the replies.

Athlon XP 1900+ 512mb ram

1.089 average encoding time. Using tmpgenc to make .tpr file and vfapiconv to make the .avi.

2 pass 109 minute movie takes roughly 5 hours to make the .vaf file and to encode.
