hey yall. i was wondering if there was anyway to get a faster encoding time, and average encoding time of a dvd for me takes about 7 hours, i did research and i found a thread saying its possible to get it down to 30 minutes.how? i tried doing the thing with the drives and its not set on PIO , its set on "DMA if available" and its still giving me about 7 hours to encode a dvd. im currently running a pentium 3 with 500 or so mghz (pitiful, lol) 128 mg of ram and windows xp proffesional, i ordered a new computer, but its not coming in until christmas, can somebody help me out?how do i encode my dvds faster?
RAM and processor both have alot to say about how fast things go. You can get away with less(as you already are), but I would recommend a minimum of 512MB of RAM and no less than 2.0GHz processor.
With your current PC, I don't see alot of hope of speeding things up without spending money. With your new PC coming in less than a month, just hang in there and save your money until it comes.
HELL YEAH!! I got the new computer early and its encoding time is about 30 minutes now,and in the words of duffman: OHH, YEAHHH!! The 1st thing im going to do is add a gig so tht it will be 1.5 gig since it already has a 512mb and update the graphics and video cards.thanks fo the info you guys , oh and by the way, athlonn IS THE SHIT., my xp 3000+
(2.167 GHZ) is equivalent to and P4 2.8 ghz
