Doing a load more AVI to DVD Convertions ( Yes, legally )
Assigned my Intel 9550 to the task.
Running Convert X to DVD v4 to do it. ( Only just upped from v3 )
Now, I have a load to do, and I normally load up ConvertX 4 times, go into the TaskManager and set the affinity to one core each, and click on go for all 4 and then, once done, I get 4 more folders in my destination.
Sounds ok right?
Anyway, I noticed one thing when upgrading to ConvertX v4 and that is that it can set the number of Cores.
Now, I had a quick look at the speeds that it does the convertion and I am a little confused.
Firstly, if I run one instance of the program and convert one AVI File, using only one core, I get roughly around 2.8x convertion.
However, if I do the same AVI and set it to 4 core, its only converting at 5.3 ?
How is that possible?
Now, I take 4 instances of ConvertXtoDVD, and in each instance, I set the affinity to one... ( One different one for each core clearly ) and I convert 4 instances all at the same time and guess what? - Each instance is convering at about 2.7 or 2.8
So, if it can convert 4 and about 2.8 Each... Why is is unable to convert more than 5... Surely I should be able to convert a single file at over 10 instead of just 5 ?
Thanks.
