Hello all. I spent a better part of the day trying to find some info why the encode process is taking long and I am hoping someone here can provide some clues.

Hardware/software:

Dual Xeon 2.2 (capable of hyperthreading, currently off)
1 Gig RAM
100 Gig HD (defraged)
Clean install XP Pro (not SP2)
Latest version of DVD RB using installer
QuEnc .59 (came with installer)

7.3 gig disk:
Prepare time - 8 minutes
Encode time - 22.4+ hours (using QuEnc with Trellis Quan + HQ mode on -- I know, it is supposed to be slow, but 22+ hours???)
Rebuild - roughly 30 mins

Processes roughly 5-6 FPM.

Saw a thread somewhere to run the encoding process on a multi-cpu machine, but was not able to locate it. Is there any way to improve performance with the existing setup/quality settings? Please help (otherwise it's back to Shrink).

Task manager shows 50% CPU utilization (25% with hyperthreading enabled). Encoding time difference negligible with HT on or off.

Thanks in advance

Regards

I've seen others with the same problem and I think it's something amiss in the setup of it. Try the installer as Wild77 says.
