    Batch converter problem

    I choose my files. Start to convert. Everything looks good. Encoding speed starts slowing down. Time remaining starts going up. Stops dead. Try to quit... have to end process and restart. Rinse and repeat.

    :komisch9: I wanted it to work like it should.

      Going from .wav to 256 .mp3. I made a subfolder and named it conversions. So it's on the same hard drive and everything. Pretty fast dual core computer as well.

        Try converting to 'Test Conversion' as a test, does that complete?

          No Spoon.

          It gets to the same 149th file and stops converting and adding more time.

          Now. Keep in mind that I've done this with different sections of the file list (476 .wav files) and with different amounts of files (ie. only choosing 120 or 136, etc.)

            Do you have any security software? Which could be stopping dbpoweramp.

                and you are only converting wave files, perhaps you have some files in the library which are causing issues, if you take one of the files which causes it to stop and try to convert the file on its own, does it work?

                  I'm actually having a very similar issue with the music converter. I typically archive my music collection on my hdd in flac format and just use those files to create lossy copies when necessary. I change the songs on my android quite a bit, and I usually like to use the newest compression files. The current version of music converter is painfully slow for me. It seems to choke on files that it never had a problem with before. Don't get me wrong, it does complete everything, and the files it creates sound the way they're supposed to, but it takes at *least* 5 times long to complete the process now, no matter what codec I'm converting to (though I mainly use mp3 lame and AoTuv). It also slows my computer to a grinding halt. I looked at my CPU usage, and before, when the program worked faster, the CPU worked at ~100% on all cores (I run a Core 2 Quad @ 3.75GHz). Now, they sit between 15 to 20%. I tried turning of Kaspersky's, but that didn't do any good. Have you got any other suggestions? Thanks
