I am just trying to figure out here if there is a faster way then to burn 1 movie every 15 hours. I was thinking maybe it's possible to execute DVD2SVCD numerous times one after another once the files have been ripped from the DVD. If this is possible or some other way is possible someone please clue in a newbie. Thanks for the time gents.
@scorpio61 didn't know it was possible. i always thought things would get screwed up. i'll give it a try, just for kicks. are you running the same dvd2svcd.exe twice, or do you use different copies?

Is it CCE that hogs the CPU? I'm just wondering if what schydog is talking about is having one process of DVD2SVCD encode the first half of the chapters in a movie and have another instance of DVD2SVCD encode the last half of the movie. Then CCE would be running twice @ the same time and get the movie encoded in half the time. 7.5hr instead of 15. I have been pondering this for a while now but have not tried it yet. Hope I made sence :)
Running 2 instances at once will make each instance run half as fast, you will not finish 2 conversions in the same time as 1. Though video encoding (and therefore CCE) is the most CPU-intensive task, all tasks will use as much CPU power as is available, and it is therefore a rare occurence when doing 2 conversions at once on the same machine is of any use.
