Converting DCP to MP4

Post by rahmani »

Transcoding process in this case is very low(more than 24 hours) about 1.7 fps with 14000 benchmark PC. Is there a way to use some pcs at the same time to handle the process In a network or transcoding farm?

I noticed it is not very fast, but I didn't benchmark it yet, as it is a very new implementation. Currently, there is no remote encoding model for the export, and, given the complex interframe nature of MP4, there probably never will be one. But I am sure it will be fast enough once Carl finds time to optimize it. When you look at CPU utilization during export, you notice there is room for improvement using only the local machine.
