Thanks

BUMP!

We need 2.7 support!

OK, I misunderstood the situation. It makes sense that the codecs are taking up 100% of one CPU. What seems to be an issue is that the particular type of process wait that AVI2DVD uses becomes a blocking wait when the process it is waiting on runs on another processor. I'm a hardware guy, so I can ...

It appears that I understand. As you said, the encoder is software and is what is using virtually all the CPU. In my original post, I said They're software codecs. It sounds right to me. If it used less CPU by lowering the priority, it would just take longer. Codec is short for en co der- dec oder ...

And the freeenc encoders you mentioned are software, correct? Yes I dont think you understand. In task manager, it lists all the processes that are running, Freenc.exe is its OWN process, its encoding, so yes, it will be using CPU power. Avi2Dvd.exe is ANOTHER process, its idle, its a front end ...

no, NOT the encoder, AVI2DVD uses 100% CPU time WAITING for the encoders (freeenc) to finish, this is wrong.

When I am encoding with Avi2Dvd, the Avi2Dvd process uses up 50% CPU time which is 100% of 1 CPU. Why is the avi2dvd EXE using so much CPU time? This isn't correct is it?
