Hi there!

With the introduction of GMC and B-Frames i recognized that my hard ware ( athlon tb 700) is too slow to play high-res files that have been encoded with these options.

What machine does it need to play a 704x320 movie encoded with BF and GMC. And, how about the psycho settings, do they add also to postprocessing power needs?

To be on the safe side I would say 1Ghz.

My 900Mhz celeron handles upto 704*400 without problems (using 128 vbr MP3 audio).

As for the psycho settings, it's my impression that this is a pre encoding filter. But I could be wrong.
