Please someone tell me why it is so slow. I see other people complaining about how slow theirs is and theirs only takes like 30 minutes. WTF?

What are your pc spec's? That will have alot to do with preformance. 4 hours is a bit much though. Is that just burning, or encoding/burning?

if you are burning dvd's,and just burning,check the status of the DMA settings in device manager
if you are transcoding files to dvd format,and burning straight onto disk,4 hrs with Nero is not unusual for the average basic pc specs,
nero takes forever,it takes me about 1,1/2 hrs for the average set of AVI files,and thats just to convert.
if you are converting avi's,try using other app's,something simple like dvixtodvd is great and the quality is far better then nero

I am encoding. So that is why it takes so long? I have a dell dimension 2400. What program should I use to encode with to make it faster?

I'm still in experiment mode:

I have just downloaded and tried divxtodvd. It certainly is quick at transcoding. Problem is, though, that the video quality is not as good as I was getting with NVE3, which, as everyone knows, takes forever. In NVE, I select MPEG2 format and 2-pass transcoding. From what I understand, it goes through the entire AVI file once merely to figure out what to do, then revisits it, actually doing the processing. When I did my first experiment, I chose MPEG4 and 1-pass, and the quality really sucked. NVE hints that the 2-pass gives better "results" than the 1-pass, but I'm not sure whether they mean, video quality or size (save that for a future experiment.)

My solution to QUICK has been to use a stand-alone DVD recorder to convert the stuff from my camcorder, right off-the-bat. It does that real time, right off the camera, so it probably can't be multipass.
(I'm not sure the quality is as good as with NVE 2-pass. I'd need two identical DVD players and TVs to make an honest comparison: maybe the next time I'm at Circuit City ...) Then I import the DVD to my hard drive from NVE. There, I can edit the imported video the same way as I could the AVI. And it seems a lot faster in the transcoding than when the source was AVI. Apparently, NVE can work with AVI, MPG, or VOB as source: I've been able to edit them all. When NVE imports a DVD, it saves it as an MPG. If I used Windows Explorer to save the file to hard disk, it would be a VOB. I'm not sure what the best combination for both QUICK and QUALITY is yet (hell! I've only been at this for a week), but stay tuned and watch for a future thread "Best Path to QUICK TRANSCODING and QUALITY Using NVE", which I'll post once I've figured it out (I assume there is no such thread, as yet: at least, I haven't found it.)

@Maralieus - i'm confused now. Are you having problems doing a normal DVD, or converting an AVI or similar, to DVD ?. If it's the second one, i use WinAVI Video converter, takes about 20mins to convert to DVD. If it's a DVD copy via DVD Shrink or Decrypter, about the same time..

hi all

husrty's time span takes into account that he is doing 1 file at a time, then the second file after the first, but if your computer can cope load 2 lots of the app up and then do both files running in parallel to each so doing 2 files in one go at the same time...



Nothing here to see, move along folks.
