[Mjpeg-users] Cygwin tests

2002-12-29 Thread jjr
Looks like my ASM change is not happening or cygwin/windows2000 cannot handle it since all my tests are dying on it after 54-194 frames. I tried: lav2yuv test.avi | mpeg2enc -f8 -o t.avi #which locked up every time #then: lav2yuv test.avi > test.yuv mpeg2enc -f8 -o t.avi < test.yuv both lock up

I changed line 394: punpcklwd mm5, [INP+8] to these two lines: movd mm2, [INP+8] punpcklwd mm5, mm2 since nasm had a problem with the source size. I hope this works. It's been a while since I have done ASM, z80, x86, 6510 and never have seen the MMX instruction set before to

The advice I was given several days ago on improving hqdivx to svcd conversion speed has really helped me out. With my new pipeline I can get between 6.5-7.5 fps from NTSC sources and 4.5-5.5 fps from PAL sources (actually, I'm sure the encoding rate is better than that; the fps computation includ

Hi "b.", First off we need to make sure we're comparing like with like. For a test.avi which is 720x568 full-size PAL video: lav2yuv test.avi | mpeg2enc -f 8 -o /dev/null my old PIII-500 (Katmai core) delivers just under 1.5 frames/sec. my Duron-800 delivers roughly 3 frames/sec. my Athlon/X

Hi Brian, Is there another process in your pipeline that could be causing the slowdown? In my personal experience, the raw MPEG encoding speed of an Athlon 700Mhz is around 30fps for VCD resolution with default encoder settings. There are some benchmarks at http://klicman.org/altivec/ if your in
