I am trying to convert a 10 episode japanese drama which was not playable on my standalone DVD player (philips 5982), it says GMC not supported. I searched the problem and found out that I should re-encode with AutoGK. I'm not sure if i'm doing anything wrong but this is taking ridiculously LONG.
My computer is not the fastest but it aint that slow... I forgot the specs, sorry, but its Intel Core 2 duo. I started the program, it he total time estimated was 26 minutes, then after that was done, the whole thing started again, an i woul have another window again (virtualdub) and another 30 minutes or so was required, i waited patiently, then the window close, ANOTHER virtual dub window opened and it has anoher total time estimated for 33 minutes, wtf??
Can someone give me an average of how long it takes to re-encode an hour long avi file? I have 10 of these an I"m not sure if this is worth my time.... Thanks!

On my system, it takes around real time for single pass. You could also try AviRecomp to see if things are quicker.

I just re-encoded a 43 minute, 624x352, 25 fps divx file in 7 minutes and 23 seconds.
In VirtualDub:
1) File -> Open Video File
2) Video -> Fast Recompress
3) Video -> Compresssion, select Divx, configure for 1-pass quality based, quantizer=3, Encoding mode Balanced, Enhanced Multithreading enabled.
4) Files -> Save as AVI.
This is so simple there's no reason to bother with a front end like AutoGK. If you're encoding several files the same way you don't even have to configure Divx each time. It remembers its settings from the last time. -
