Hi guys, on which system will CCE or TMPGENC encodes faster, system with a single Athlon XP 2200+, or dual Athlon MP 1600+ ? Thanks for the advice.

Using Tmpgenc, the dual should be way faster.
It is one of the few app's that pegs both cpu's at near 100% on my system and genuinely almost halves the encode time.

So, if compared to my current PIII 600, can it increase the encoding(MPEG1/VCD) speed to perhaps 300% ? Would you pls mention the details of your PC's specs ? Thanks. -

I have a dual PIII-550MHz setup with Win2k, and I noticed only a 20-30% increase in encoding speed. So I don't think you will get that much of an increase between those 2 systems you mentioned. People seem to think that because you have 2 cpu's, you have double the power, or in my case, a system running at 1.1GHz.

My setup is dual P3 1G on an Asus Cuv4x-d with 1G mem.
Running XP pro.
Looking at Executioner's comments on his dual 500, I can't see why the increase in speed is so little. As I said, I see around 90% difference in encoding time and looking at task manager, both cpu's are hitting close to 100% with just Tmpgenc running.
This is typically re-encoding mpeg's captured with PowerVCR to PAL DVD standard.

As I mentioned above, I see only a 20-30% increase using TMPGEnc. I have enabled dual cpu support in the environment settings. Before adding the extra PIII-550MHz cpu, it would take ~12 hours to encode a typical movie using the higest quality settings. With the addition of another PIII-550MHz cpu, it now takes ~9 hours to encode. Maybe it's my POS system, but that is all I've noticed as an increase in encoding speed.
Supermicro mobo
320 megs of PC100 ram
17 gig 7200rpm IBM IDE HD
Voodoo3 video card
Win2k (with service pack#2)
Not the best, but I built it out of spare parts laying around, and all I use it for is making VCD's and SVCD's.
