TMPGEnc:::...

TMPGEnc
converts *.AVI file to MPEG1, the format which is used in
VideoCD. Using variety of option in TMPGEnc, you can compress
your video file in high quality.
TMPGEnc enables us adjust bitrate, quantize matrix, GOP
structure, Interlace and many other parameter so that you
can create most appropriate movie file depending on your
purpose.TMPGEnc, or "TSUNAMI-MPEG Encoder", as
it used to be called, TMPGEnc supports dual-CPUs for filtering
and part of the MPEG encoding procedure. 3D Now! and SSE
are also supported.

CPU Usage - Click For a Larger Image
For
this test I converted a 692MB *.avi file.
Encoding
Times:

Athlon64 X2 4800+ TMPGEnc Encode Time

Athlon64
4000+ TMPGEnc Encode Time
Now
we're seeing the benefits dual-core processors. 7minutes
12 seconds to encode the clip on the 4000+ is reduced to
a mere 4 minutes and 15 seconds when encoded using the X2.
Okay,
so if the X2 is so happy running this app multithreaded,
we should be able to multitask without the encoding time
falling too much below that of the 4000+. I fired up a session
of Primordia to run in the background then encoded the same
clip again.
Encoding
Times - Multitasking:

Athlon64
X2 4800+ Athlon64
X2 4800+ TMPGEnc Encode Time + Primordia

Athlon64
4000+ TMPGEnc Encode Time
+ Primordia
The
result is that the X2 is able to encode our 692MB video
file, even with Primordia running in the background, in
less time than the mighty 4000+ can do it when all its resources
are available. Here we can see it in graph form to make
it easier to decipher.
