I have found the transcode speed (or lack of) is influenced more by the disk speed than processor speed. Example, I have a desktop and laptop with same 2.0GHz Core CPU, albeit laptop is the slower mobile version. While the desktop is 4 or 5 times faster at completing a handbrake encode. The laptop does the GiP flv to mp4 in around 1/4 the time of desktop. Both are XP Pro, 2GB Ram, but laptop has a 5,400 SATA 3 Seagate Hybrid HDD vs 7,200 SATA 1 Seagate HDD in desktop. _______________________________________________ get_iplayer mailing list get_iplayer@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer
