Best video encoding software that uses quad core technology

[ibewho]

Anyone know of any free software that uses all 4 cores? I convert videos occasionally to watch on my ps3 and the video converters I use don't seem to utilize all the processor speed that's avaliable to it. Most of the time, it only uses 1 or 2 threads even when multi threading is enabled. Can anyone recommend me a video encoder that actually uses all my cpu power to convert these video files faster? Thanks

If you can use H.264 in MKV or MP4 containers on the PS3, Handbrake is an excellent program that can utilise at least 8 threads at 100%.

Have you guys tried badaboom? That's suppose to be way better than handbrake
