An awesome place
I did a 1hr55min video, Green Day Bullet in a Bible to be exact, in about 1hr09 minutes. Or at least that is what it said at the begining. I was averaging between 40 and 44 fps. And that was to iPod size also.

I was very happy with that, I hope this is about what it should be.

wow! were you doing ffmpeg or h.264? my earlier conversion was 700kbps to mpeg4 using ffmpeg. i did another using h.264 and it was a lot faster.

Why would you NOT use h.264? The codec rocks!
i do for my larger conversions. my ipod sized conversions are mpeg4 b/c it also needs to play on my wife's treo 650, which doesn't like h.264 very much...

I'm Running the New Universal Binary Handbrake on my iMac 20 duo/2GB and getting frame rates of around 77 when compressing to MP4 for my iPod :)

are you running any other apps at the same time? also, what was your final average fps when compression ended? thanks.

The final average was 78 fps. When I was compressing that particular movie, I was only using safari. Doesn't seem to slow at all though even if using Photoshop. Probably due to the duo core enabling separate tasks.

That movie was a long 2hours 36mins and encoded in 51 mins.

On handbrakes site, I see a PPC version and a UB Version, but no "intel" version?

I amjust looking for the fastest possible on my IntelliMac :)

You want the universal binary version.

Although I wonder if there's a utility yet for stripping the PPC part of universal binaries out, to save on hard drive space. (not that it really matters to me since I won't be buying an Intel Mac for a couple years probably)

Im not sure if I'm correct but the program is mainly the same for intel and ppc, not much size is added for a ub. its not anything like twice the size, more like a few mb bigger.

am I correct?
