Athlon 850 Encoding MPEG2>MPEG4 @ 24fps!?!?!?!?

Greetings,

Regarding the benchmark on the MPEG-4 Video Encoding:Xmpeg 4.2a w/ Divx 5.0 Pro (link below). The results show that you are receiving 24.34 FPS for an Athlon 850 -- How is this possible? I have used XMpeg 4.2a and 4.5 with Divx 3.11 to Divx 5.01 and never got such a high encoding rate with my current system.

My Current System:

AMD Athlon Thunderbird 1.1ghz "b"
Spectek PC133 RAM 256mb
MSI K7T Turbo
Seagate 40gb 7200rpm
ATI All in Wonder Radeon 32mb DDR
Operating System: Windows XP Professional


My usual DVD Rips are :

720x576 (780kbit bit rate) -- PAL/25 FPS
iDCT: DVD2AVI MMX -- Tried various others too (eg. AMD x87)
Format: YUV2
Filtering: Bressenham -- Tried Bilinear too.
No Audio
DIVX 4.12 Codec

With:

XMPEG 4.2a -- 12-13 fps
Virtual DUB (pre-processed with DVD2AVI): 16fps


Does the benchmark only record one of the passes of a two pass encode? I really cant see the huge leap in fps due to YUV2.

If you are really receiving these statistics, a detailed tutorial or complete list of settings to achieve these results would be much appreciated.

i dont know about the high frame rates your getting but i guess it could be, the real reason im talking to you is im trying to figure out this problem im having... when i rip dvds to avi using divx some dvds dont work right, like the movie tommy boy, it ends early and the audio is way off. other movies copy completely but the audio is off by about a min toward the middle of the movie then syncs back up. i have successfully converted several dvds and they all work great, but just a select few dont work right. have you had this problem?

how do you shoot the devil in the back? what happens if you miss? -verbal
