It will be brilliant for specialist encoder plugins. Though I doubt that the studios will like it. Making pirating videos even easier.

LOL - it only takes 10 minutes now. Faster is good, but 10 minutes is not exactly a deal breaker! I know people who spent over a week encoding, and I heard some film releases took years! Faster is good... but I'll buy it when it has a design power under 10Watts and costs under £35, because I don't need it

Yes but a few minutes to encode a bluray disc would be nice.

Sounds a bit specialised. If it can't do general purpose computing as well, then I wouldn't pay extra to have it on a chip.

It would be of interest to me.
I'm currently looking at encoding all my DVDs to stick em on my media box.
Seconds versus 10 minutes per movie would be a welcome boost.

That would probably be a lot faster than the dvd drive.

I rip it to HDD then strip out the extras and re-encode just the movie. I'd love to find an all-in-one solution that didn't completely butcher the quality or de-sync the audio.

the numbers of films that I have where the audio is out of sync.

Super C? It's free and lets you do most things IIRC, including adjusting the streams... Converts music too

I've not heard of Super C.
I'll look into it, thanks ernie.

I found Super a bit hardcore overkill for what I wanted and much prefer to use Handbrake - but it might not be as powerful.
