Re: GPU based DCP encoding

So after giving this some thought, would building a RPi4 Cluster be superior to a high end multi-Core AMD CPU? I've been speaking with a PC buddy of mine for a few weeks now and we've settled on an AMD Ryzen 9 3950X (16-Core), 16GB RAM, Samsung EVO 970 M.2 & Win10 LTSB. With Case/PSU/CPU Cooler,...

Re: GPU based DCP encoding

I get it now, Post processing isn't the part we're trying to speed up (at least not really), it's the Conversion itself. I like the idea of dual Xeon setup. Let me ask one last question, does RAM effect the process at all, once you're above the minimum needed for Windows and DCP-o-matic. Meaning, if...

Re: GPU based DCP encoding

You need as many cores as possible to speed up the conversion. Even very old CPUs with many cores can be faster than modern higher clocked CPUs with less cores. It is possible to create a feature DCP at around real-time, that is, 3hrs conversion time for a 3h feature, at modest cost. https://dcpoma...

Re: GPU based DCP encoding

I too am looking for solutions to speeding up this process. I run a small Art House in Colorado and eating up my PC for 13-33 hours PER Movie is rough. Especially since they take up massive amounts of space once they are converted, it's tough to hold many of them even on large external Storage syste...
