Encoding in realtime is alreaddy extrem fast for the home equipment. If you need more speed take a lool that the mjpeg howto section "SMP and distributed Encoding" I think you will have to use one the things described to speed up things. BTW: If you use rsh buffer might help. > 2) I get very similar results using libjpeg-mmx and libjpeg on a P3-800 (both > optimized for i686). Is this normal ?

If you use filter and scaling the value will drop down. auf hoffentlich bald, Berni the Chaos of Woodquarter Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] www: http://www.lysator.liu.se/~gz/bernhard ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com _______________________________________________ Mjpeg-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mjpeg-users
