Machine: Linux 2.4.20, AMD Athlon XP 1800+ 256 Mb Ram, mjpeg tools 1.6.1 with yuvmedianfilter from CVS.
I encoded a vhs source 2 hour tape with the following pipeline: lav2yuv test*.avi | yuvdenoise -r 16 -S 0 -b 8,8,-8,-8 | yuvmedianfilter -t 0 -T 2 | y4mscaler -O size=352x576 -S option=cubicB | mpeg2enc -f 8 -q 4 -4 2 --reduce-hf -I 1 -o test.m2v It took about 18 hours, not much else running, no X11. Here is the "ps" from towards the end: root 30395 127 0 May28 tty1 00:00:00 /bin/bash ./todvdmpeg root 30396 30395 6 May28 tty1 00:59:31 lav2yuv test01.avi test02.avi te root 30397 30395 49 May28 tty1 07:11:59 yuvdenoise -S 0 -r 16 -b 8,8,-8, root 30398 30395 14 May28 tty1 02:05:16 yuvmedianfilter -t 0 -T 2 root 30399 30395 3 May28 tty1 00:32:42 y4mscaler -O size=352x576 -S opt root 30400 30395 25 May28 tty1 03:38:20 mpeg2enc -f 8 -q 4 -4 2 --reduce root 30401 30400 0 May28 tty1 00:00:00 mpeg2enc -f 8 -q 4 -4 2 --reduce root 30402 30401 0 May28 tty1 00:04:07 mpeg2enc -f 8 -q 4 -4 2 --reduce Question is, has anyone tried to "rsh" some jobs out to other computers (e.g. on a 100Mb ethernet) to try to shorten the time, or would that just mean the network becomes the bottleneck? -- Scott ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: eBay Get office equipment for less on eBay! http://adfarm.mediaplex.com/ad/ck/711-11697-6916-5 _______________________________________________ Mjpeg-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mjpeg-users
