btw, for those users of relatively slow fe/be combos (I have a 1GHz
EPIA) who haven't discovered this yet: transcoding to mpeg4 via
"mencoder" using ffmpeg's libav codec library is *much* faster than
xvid/divx, which is what nuvexport/transcode uses by default AFAICT.
As a data point: I was seeing conversion speeds of 1-2fps from
"transcode" in high quality mode, while I get about 5-6fps from
"mencoder" with analogous quality options set, plus deinterlacing and
noise reduction. This can make the difference between an overnight
transcode and a multi-day one on a slow box.
Cheers,
Matt.
