Multi encoder is SLOW!!

[Guegs]

Whenever I try to convert with multi encoder to:

MP3 V0
MP3 V2
MP3 320
AAC 320
Ogg Q8

I get this:



Notice how it is encoding very slow and only using one CPU.

Now when I try to convert to any one of the above formats I get this:



Now that is more like it! Does anybody have any idea why?

Make sure the check box 'Multi-CPU' is checked on the Multi encoder page.

Thanks for the reply Spoon. Multi CPU is definitely checked.

Try simplifying your encoding as a test, just do to mp3 and mp3 at the same time, look at task manager to see which cpus are being used.

When I use these settings:



I get:



I get similar results no matter which codec I output to.

That is right for a single mp3 conversion, add a 2nd mp3 item to the multi-encoder, what is the conversion speed now?

Same exact problem that I'm having and created a thread about last week. What gives? All the same issues and results.

Re: Multi encoder is SLOW!!

Huge improvement.. thanks so much. I'm getting 7x-9x now. Still not as fast as the normal 20x-22x speeds if I encode a single format though..

Re: Multi encoder is SLOW!!

If encoding to 5 formats then it will be 5x slower in the reported speed.
