Remember - one of those cpus is being used by yuvdenoise... The parallelism in mpeg2enc is fairly coarse too so using 2 cpus does not translate exactly into 2x the encoding rate. Then too even cheap systems today (Athlon-XP3000) have more cpu power in a single cpu than the dual P3s of yesterday. > I might give a go to upgrade to new MDK versions then Mjpegtools then. That might help a little - newer compiler could generate better code but I think any improvement is going to be in the few percent range and not suddenly bring about 10 frames/sec. If you have the diskspace you could denoise to a file and then run mpeg2enc - that way they wouldn't be competing for the cpus. Might speed things up at the cost of some temp space. Good Luck.
