I am about to upgrade my pc next month or so.
What I am using now is Athlon 1600+, 256mb ddr266, wd 80 gb hard drive, upmost tv plus and creative live value.
OS is Winodws XP Pro.
TV program is VirtualVCR.
I always try to capture TV program into XVID and MP3 format.
My machine can barely record XVID with CQ 80%, but audio encoding should be PCM. Once I set it to MP3, sync problem occurs.
I think it's because my CPU couldn't handle the tasks.
I might upgrade my system to p4 with HT. But I would really like to know if HT can really do good jobs with capturing videos?
If HT can really provides two virtual CPUs (should be worse than really dual cpu system anyway), can it handle encoding in divx and mp3 at the same time?
And does HT really help you to excute multiple tasks at the same time as well?
Many questions and big thanks to those who are willing to help.
