What are the specs of your computers and how long are your average encodes taking ?. I'm looking to buy some new gear soon so I'm just looking to find out how fast the encodes can be.

I have over 100 720p films to convert so its gonna be very time consuming.

I just encoded Tron Legacy on a Core i5 2500 using the handbrake profile that's been posted. It took about 40 minutes. I'm sure it would take longer if I used my laptop that is a Core i3 540
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Daedalus:
I've never used it, but if you have an NVIDIA GPU, you could look at Badda Boom. It's supposedly something like twenty times as fast as a CPU encode.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tenny:

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frosty5689:
Depends on how long the video is. For a 1 hour video, takes about 30minute for 1pass only. 2pass takes longer and compresses better.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlimDan22:
So your source material is 720p or are you converting to 720p from 1080p?

Anyways Here are my specs and time, also CUDA FTW

I use mediacoder because the CUDA support it the best i have found for free

I dont have any 1080p source material so i downloaded some 1080p high profile trailers

Main Specs:

i7 860 - 2.8Ghz - Overclocked To 3.4Ghz

Nvidia GTX 470

Clip:

1080p HighProfile Trailer 1:48

Converting To 720p Normal Profile:

i7- 2.8Ghz (4 Cores, 4 Threads)

85 Seconds So A 90 Minute movie would take 1 Hour and 10 minutes using CPU

Converting To 720p Normal Profile:

Nvidia GTX 470

26 Seconds So A 90 Minute movie would take 21 Minutes using GPU!!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mug2k:
That's some pretty impressive times. I'd be converting 720p HighProfile to 720p Normal Profile or 720p HighProfile to 480p Normal Profile.

I figure 720p is overkill for a 10.1" screen.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlimDan22:
Yeah thats what i think too, but people still insist on trying to play 1080p content on the transformer =P, but 720p main looks great on the TF

Key with CUDA is the best performance comes when you use h264 content as a source, but i get really good speeds from Windows Media Video though

Here is some 720P specs for you that i just ran:

Clip:

720p High Profile 2:19

CPU:

94 Seconds

GPU:

22 Seconds
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mug2k:
Are those times for High Profile to Normal Profile conversions ?. Also would it be any faster converting from 720p to 480p. Lastly are the GPU conversions solely dependent on the card and not the cpu at all ?.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlimDan22:
Yes they where from High Profile to Normal, it would be a faster going from 720p to 480p from my experience, because that's what i use to encode videos for my 1st Gen Ipod Touch =)

Also, the GPU conversions do not really depend on the CPU that much i believe because when using my GPU, my processor is only being 20% utilized

Also i used to have a Nvidia 9500 GT with a Pentium D, then when i built my new system with my i7 i kept the 9500 in there for a while (until blackfriday :cool: ) and my GPU conversion speeds stayed the same

If you plan on getting a new Graphics cards, (Nvidia) anything over the GTX 460 will fly, also if you SLI the cards the speed does not increase but you can convert two videos at once (one on each card) :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frosty5689:
Using CUDA encoder to convert is certainly the fastest, but the bitrate to quality pales in comparison to a CPU encoder like x264. If you're willing to suffer quality for speed, it's perfectly fine to use CUDA encoders.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlimDan22:
Depends what program you use, badaboomit does not give you access to the the advanced cuda settings, whereas mediacoder does in my experience

Only thing with cuda is you cant do multiple passes

I dont have a bluray source to convert, so i dont know what the quality would be over 10Mbps

[dont know why you would want anything over 5Mbps on a 10.1" LCD with a resoulution of 1280 × 800 anyways]

FYI i encoded all those trailers from 12Mbps to 10Mbps,
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seshmaru:
Does mediacoder support openGL encoding?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] straxusii:
For reference I tried badaboom with my GTX 480 SOC on a 720p sample pop video.

Handbrake took 1m 50s to convert, Badaboom took 46s (xoom profile)

Edit: specs are Win7 64bit, Q9650@3.6ghz

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pablidito:
I'm new to this board, so plz excuse me up front if i'm posting in the wrong section or discussion board or anything similar. I have the following flytouch tablet configuration:

Model: SAWEE Pad

Firmware: 2.1-update1 V2.3:#3529

Baseband version: Unknown

Kernel Version: 2.6.32.9

Build number: ERE27

My question is this...i tried upgrading to the stragulus version of froyo and in the process (think i) bricked my tab. I have searched all over the net for the original firmware/rom for this tab and can't for the life of me find it. Every ROM close to this one I try to install goes through the process, then when it comes time to boot up the first time, it hangs on either the green screen or the android text screen w/ the flashing cursor (not the graphic boot up animation). I can't get passed this part regardless. Have tried multiple solutions and still the same result. Don't know if this helps, but the boot screen says 0.6.1.2 (587) in the bottom right hand corner when the tab first starts up. I bought this thing off of ebay, so I don't even know who the original manufacturer is and the infotmic website...well lets just say i'm not very well versed in chinese. Am I the only one who has this firmware version 3529 in the entire world? Or am i just the only one stupid enough to think i could upgrade this thing! HA! My nook color was a flippin breeze to upgrade the ROM compared to this tab!

If anyone can provide any help or point me to anywhere I can fix this thing, i would be most appreciative...thanks in advance!

[Xoom General] patass:

[Xoom General] Kippui:
Well. if you have a core i7 then it shouldn't take too long.
[Xoom General] vidriera:
I have an i5 750, ati HD5850, and 4GB of RAM. Video encoding is the only thing that maxes out all four cores on my processor, and it takes about one minute per six minutes of video on average using handbrake. However, I don't bother re-encoding videos anymore. I just use plex, but that might not work for your circumstances.

Whatever you do, make sure you encode baseline h264.

[Xoom General] e.mote:
@OP

Get a quadcore. Otherwise, it doesn't matter all that much. This, from one who has xcoded thousands of movies & movie clips on a bottom-end dual-core.

It matters more how you're encoding, and what software you're encoding with. x264 has different speeds, and unintuitively, 'fast' speeds can get a smaller size than slower ones.

Resolution makes a big diff. Many think 1280x720 is best for tablets. The truth is, there's very little quality difference between 1280 and 800 on a small screen, and the 800 res is about half the size and xcode twice as fast. It also streams much smoother over wifi.

Ignore the peeps who said you have to encode to baseline profile. The 3.1 update apparently can handle high profile now, although it still doesn't have native MKV/AC3/DTS support. I would try high prof first, then main prof.

Lastly, it only takes a long time if you sit and wait for it. I'm doing a 21-CD miniseries to MKV, and before that a 95-eps series. Each job takes me about 10 mins to set up, and some extra for spot checking. Otherwise, just let it run and ignore it.
[Xoom General] vidriera:
I know high profile has worked fine for SD content, but are you actually getting smooth playback on high or main profile 720p?

Edit: I just tried a few that I had that happened to be high profile with aac audio, and I'm still getting pretty choppy playback but it IS better than it was in 3.01. I'm still curious to know whether you or others are getting better results here, though.
[Xoom General] VaKo:
I have an Intel i7-2600 with 8GB of RAM and a Intel SSD for my machine, and a 1.33hr 720p rip of Restrepo takes 30mins to encode using the attached Handbreak preset (rename to "xoom 720p.plist" and import). I think I got this from XDA but I can't remember, and it works nicely for HD content.

I also use Moboplayer as it's the only one that seems to work without issue.
[Xoom General] alias_neo:
I have an i7-950, 12GB DDR3 (XMS3) and GTS450, on an Asus ROG III Gene. Can convert a blueray with handbrake in under 20 minutes and a DVD in under 15. And I always write the output to a different physical hard disk.

Is there any way to push new wallpapers so they will show up in "HTC wallpapers" as if they were always there? I'm no developer but I've had my phone rooted for some time and I'm very comfortable in adb.

What I've tried so far:

I used adb to pull one of the stock wallpapers, it's a 960x800 .jpg. So I downloaded a wallpaper I like (already 960x800 but .png) and converted it to .jpg. The last stock wallpaper listed in /system/customize/resource/ is htc_wallpaper_22.jpg so I named mine htc_wallpaper_23.jpg and used adb to push it to /system/customize/resource/. It shows up in Root Explorer but when I go to menu>Wallpaper>HTC wallpaper it's not there. I also tried to replace htc_wallpaper_22.jpg with the image of my choice and it did change the actual wallpaper but not the preview icon, so I put the stock one back. I would like it to look like it was there from the factory if at all possible, any ideas? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[Omnia 7 General] bmazloum:
So with this 7932 BS going around, I'm gonna get myself a usb jig. (Omnia 7)

Question 1:

With the USB Jig, there is no chance of ever bricking the phone as I'll always have the option to get into bootloader mode and put whatever firmware I want on it. Right?

Question 2:

Can I update the bootloader on the Omnia 7 so I don't have to use the jig again to get into bootloader mode (if it's not bricked)? Or will I always need it? I see firmware on samfirmware, but I believe those are just the OS. Could be wrong here.

Question 3:

Is it worth putting another firmware on there if I've already registry unbranded my phone?

Thanx!
[Omnia 7 General] tmaniac:
1) no idea

2) when you flash a firmware from samfirmware, the download mode gets activated. I.E. you won't need the JIG anymore

3) when you change firmware you'll loose everything on the phone, that means your registry settings will be gone.

I flashed my phone to an earlier unbranded version, chevron unlocked and prevented relocking. Then i just updated my phone to NODO. And i'm still unlocked :)

As of this moment NODO is not jailbroken. just keep that in mind.
[Omnia 7 General] bmazloum:
Thanx.

Just read that I could update my bootloader and radio firmware without updating the actual OS firmware. That keeps the settings.

As for NoDo not being jailbroken. Are we thinking the same thing as jailbroken. Cause I'm thinking being able to sideload programs from my PC to the phone, and right now I'm using NoDo, and sideloading programs no problem. I'm using 7390, faulty bootloader isn't letting me upgrade to 7392.

It's not a big deal. Takes less than a minute to do. I never really thought about it until amosavitas brought it up. No one has ever said anything about the toolkit breaking themes. So from here on out, all the mod's I post will be compatible with the toolkit.

Plus, Remix won't be released until I'm finished with theming it. Did framework, resources, systemUI and clock widget yesterday. Will be working more on it tonight. It will be worth the wait. :)
