I am encoding Lord of the Rings right now to a VCD with TMPGEnc... I used to do SVCD's but my crappy magnavox dvd player is anal and does not like them nor play them well at all!!!! Never again will I buy magnavox.....
Any rate... I have a 1.3 Celeron, 512 megs of ram,60 gig drive and windows XP.....
I loaded the enitre movie and will split it later for two or three disks depending on file size!!! I chose high quality as some have stated that High and Highest have really no noticable effects?
Any rate to encode the movie at this rate of High Quality with NO other filters is taking 10 hours?
Is this normal??? I thought the faster the PC the faster the encoding??? I tried to diable preview with TMPGNce but it made no real speed difference?
Can anyone offer me some tweeking help or is this good for this pc???
Thanks for your time...

10 hours for a 3hr movie on a Celeron is very good with TMPGEnc. If you use CCE, it'd take you like 1-3 hrs.
TMPGEnc is great for the price, but the speed is slow. So what you have going is fine. Look into CCE, quality is better (in some cases, not turning this thread into a disscusion about it) and also more than double the speed of TMPGEnc. -
I have a 450MHZ Processor, Windows 98 and a 20GIG HD and it would take me around 2 - 3 days so consider yourself lucky....

My XP1500 (1.33ghz) with 768 megs of ram, doing a VBR, high quality encoding takes about 9 hours or so for a 90-100min movie. So that sounds about right.

There are far too many variables to say it will take X amount of time to encode. It all depends on your settings, your PC's general condition, space available, memory and FSB speeds, hard drive RPM, seek time, and raw read/write speeds, etc.
I'm running a 1.5 PIV, 200GB (8Meg Buffer per drive - 2 drives) IDE Raid, Ultra 160 15,000 RPM Seagate SCSI Cheeta( 18 GB - this is where the source is), 512MB 2700 DDR Ram, and converting Attack Of The Clones (2 hours and 24 minutes) takes over 29 hours using TMPGenc (2-pass VBR, first pass 17 hours), with the highest quality settings (ie. motion detection maxed, DC precision maxed, etc).
The same movie takes 3.5 hours using CCE... -
So once a DVD has been ripped onto a computer, do you still need the DVD for anything?
-
No! You can safely return it to the hire shop!!
Just make sure that you have ripped all the vob files and the ifo file into one folder. -
IFO's are used for the movie itself too. It contains info on the movie, it's audio, video, and everything in between. You must have, at a minimum, the main IFO, and the main movie VOB's, plus the main movie IFO.
If your not sure, read the guides on a DVD's structure. If in doubt, rip it all.
