Ouch, I only have a single CPU G5 Power Mac, and it takes about 20+  
hours to process a 2 hour DVD with two pass on (and average bit rate  
set to 2000 kps) for a H.264 encoding.

I do have Anamorphic PAR set on (which sets the output to 720x572 -  
anamorphic 1024x572) but that is still very slow :-(  Good think I  
can just leave it going and I don't do many of these.

Oh to be stuck in single core, single CPU land.

Cheers,
Ashley.
