im trying to reduce the speed it takes to convert files in the "my videos" burning feature, so far ive been using ffmpeg to do the converting from non mpeg files, but it takes about an hour on my 2.6 ghz machine (1280mb ram) to convert a 2 hour movie.
thats fine if your watching it while you encode, but is mencoder faster?
is there another app that is faster?
i want the quality to still be good (since burning to dvd).
also can you supply the command line/params if you know them (saving me from having to find them )
oh and it would be good if you could specify the filesize, or if there was an option like -dvd that would convert a file to the correct single layer size (so you dont get a 8gb file to burn to a 4.7gb disc).
TIA
