Looking for a fast xvid/divx encoder


Recommended Posts

I have creative Zen and its video converter is kind of slow (24' for a 22' video).

The player supports DivX, Xvid, wmv9 (320x240 maximum output, so I virtually have to recode all of my video clips), and its converter doesn't allow to choose a coder other than wmv.

I'm looking for a faster encoder, that might utilize multicore cpu and maybe allow the integration of external subs. Currently using "Any Video Converter" http://www.any-video-converter.com/ set up to encode to xvid, which can do 8' to convert the 22' divx video I have, but looking at the cpu utilization of my computer, I can say that it's using only one core, and I guess it could be faster using both cores. Also, this tool can't embed the external subs to the output file.

Could you suggest the best converter you've used?

Most important is that the software support multiple processors and that your system has same. Dual CPU's are good for video rendering, but quads are better - even an old Intel Q6600 or AMD Phantom.

That it also support GPGPU (ATI's Srream or NVIDIA's CUDA - using the graphics GPU's shaders to accelerate rendering), preferrably under DirectX 11, would be sauce for the goose.
