cce and dual processor boards

[mcp]

Hi, i´m gonna to buy a dual athlon board.
Could anybody please tell me if the Cinema Craft Encoder will work 2 times (=2 processors) faster?
(I didn´t see a dual-buttom feature in the program, so will my Windows XP Professional do this for me?)

this issue has been discussed many times. CCE will not work twice as fast. You can expect a 50% (more or less) speed gain when using just CCE. If you frameserve, you can expect only 10% speed gain.
