    Need More Proccessing Power

    Hey all,

    Im using currently to encode a PIII 666mhz (weird eh? 666mhz) and i also have an 800 AMD Duron in my other room. The two are netoworked and im wondering if anyone thinks that a program that allows me to use both proccessor usage on the same comp to encode

    Ive seen it done at universityies all the time where they use all of the comp labs CPU usage to do big projects and such

    Does ne one know if my idea to get both comps encoding 1 movie would work?

    And if so where could I find this program

      Don't know about a single program, but you could just split the vobs into two groups, and encode one half on one machine, and the other half on the other, then use Virtual Dub to join them back together.

        I know this seems lame for my Multicomputer Solution, but I use one computer to read the streams another to process and the last to save, to cut down on the hard-drive bottlenecks. The processing computer is of course the fastest.....

          hey crazylegs.
          just curious, but what kind of FPS do you get while encoding on your two computers? For my P3 733, I get around 6 or 7 fps encoding speed. I have seen benchmarks that suggest 20 fps is possible with the fastest Athlon XP's

            FPS very much depend on the tool one uses, omarh!

            with mpeg2avi for example i can easily reach 20-25 fps on my transcoding pc (1333 tb), with dvd2svcd (using cce) i get around 20fps and with nandub set to highest quality filtering it is some 10-15 average (using avisynth even more, but i dont like fast recompressing!)

                wow, those kind of fps speeds would be amazing.
                I'm really annoyed at 6fps...and right now its at 4fps 'cause i turned on de-interlace since my source is some DV home video i took which is interlaced mpeg-2 (after converting it from DV).

                Uncas, have you tried Flask 0.6?? just wondering what fps you would see in that.

                  Yep, it's me. I got PIII 800EBMHz and I get 25-30fps using flask, VIDOMI and Vitual DUB.

                  I am not teasing anybody in anyway, act as normal human beings please.

                  Thank-you

                    @ omarh

                    when using de-interlacers my fps drops, tooooo!

                    and no i tried 0.6 of flask for some minutes only to find out: new skin for the old crap.

                    speed was still poor, sound synch probs occured like before,....

                    i used mpeg2avi for a long time then and speed, output quality and reliability were unrivaled.

                    before that i used older versions of flask quite a lot and they NEVER really were bugfree or reliable tools!

                    in case speed was an issue i'd use MPEG2AVI!!

                      WEll since mpeg2avi doesn't seem to let you choose the divx 4.11 codec. I'm going to try out DVD2AVI and see how fast it encodes.

                      I can't understand how techno can get 20fps with flask and a p3 800mhz computer. how the hell can an 800 mhz computer do that when my 733 only gets me 6fps? what did you do to your computer? did you give it steroids??

                        well, i cant judge

                        20 fps for flask and a p3 seems a bit much, but i can only speak for my system

                          Mr omarh, Very funny. I will let everyone now what I did. I will as soon as I finished writing a webpage about what I do to get the best quality in DIVX and for a small file size,

                            maybe it is some misunderstanding:

                            are you talking about RE-encoding, Techno???

                            that cant be transcoding vob files into mpeg4!?!?!?

                              I am talking about re-encoding and encoding to DIVX. I hope I haven't caused any type of misunderstanding.

                              Thank-you
