1.) my setup
PIII-800 Mhz
512 MB SD-RAM
120 GB HD
AOpen AX63Pro motherboard
Cinema Craft Encoder 2.50/2.64
cce 2.5o speed rate: ~ 0,5 - 0,54
cce 2.64 speed rate: ~ 0,3 - 0,33
2.) what i am trying to do
encoding Apocalypse Now Redux (running time: 3hours 20 minutes) for 3CDs (800)
VBR - 4 passes, leaving all other settings as they are in dvd2svcd (default)
3.) problems:
a) when cce is encoding with 2.64 it takes ~ 11hours to finish the first time (is this the first pass or the whole 4 pass process??)
then i get an error from dvd2svcd: ",, not a valid floatingpoint"
then it starts again giving me the remaining time of ~ 40hours (is this the second pass??)
b) when cce is encoding with 2.50 it takes ~ 9hours to finish the first time (from the size and the percentage which is beeing displayed i calculated that at the end it will be 2100MB (~3 CDs)
but when finished it starts again, this time without any error (size i calculated from size and percentage -> 8000MB??) - time remaining: 20hours
4.) questions:
is there anything i missed in the settings ? i mean: 1st pass - 9hours, 2nd pass - 20hours, 3rd pass - i didn't get that far, 4th pass - not even close -> like 30hours+ to convert to svcd ??
ok its a 3,5 hours movie but ..
can someone please enlighten me ??
maybe some ppl can post some specs like in the cce speed rate post, like:
i.e. 2 hours movie, 3vbr, athlon 1000Mhz, 512 sdram,encoding time : 12hours, speed rate 0,7
thx all
my conclusions:
i think the speed difference is because of the "safe mode" i used when encoding in 2.64
