Just wondering if it would speed up HD encoding to WMV 1280by720 HD
files. I knoiw it wont help Divx HD.



I know it helps in playback but in encoding ???

Thanks.

OH boobiies.

I summpose an AMD 3800 X2 Dual core would help encoding. ALot faster
than my mobile Barton at 2.4 ghz.

Iam doing multi Gigabyte encoding. Not for profit you see. So no 5
grand hardware encoders for me. its just a SLOW hobby iave got at the
moment.

Thanks.

But in Genral a 64bit cpu would encoder alot faster. Even without
optimisation. Well thats what i have been reading. Just using WME orr
Divx 6.

iam encoding a Divx 6 file now. 2.2 gigs now at 8% its using the
whole cpu time. Might take an Hour its just an experiment to see how
long it takes. aND WHEN i get my X2 3800 ill see how long that takes.
I know i will take less time but wondering how less ???

Thanks.
