  • Revision 73ff56b68e : Merge "Fix slightly quality drop caused at speed 1."

  • x264 library speed - Altivec vs SSE2 -

    25 février 2013, par Omer Merdan

    I have simple cheap dualcore intel-3ghz-debian and access to super-expensive powerPc7-Aix.

    And after few days of strugle, i compiled libx264 and tested it on both computers :

    1. GCC : library x264 on intel (with SSE2 capabilities) and
    2. GCC on 16 core powerPc (with altivec).

    ... and result is that cheap intel is x2 times faster ! (with altivec disabled, intel is 10x times faster)

    My question : is this normal ?
    Does all other powerPC-users have same results ? Can powerPc-altivec-optimisation of x264 library work at same speed with intel... or MMX/SSE optimisation is officially at least 2 times faster for this library ?

    I am not interested in multi-thread options. Number of cores and threads are irrelevant. Just simple one-thread x264 encoding with default "medium preset" using rawvideo as source, sse vs altivec.

    Maybe native Aix XLC compiler provide better results ? (i managed only gcc to work)

    ... mac-powerpc-users maybe know something about this.

  • How to speed up ffmpeg video conversions [closed]

    24 janvier 2013, par PIKP

    I need to extract the audio as a MP3 file from a given video file. I have selected "ffmpeg" for audio extraction process. with the use of following arguments I have managed to extract the audio as a MP3. this work very well. but it takes about "2 minutes" to extract the audio from "21 minutes" long video file.

    ffmpeg -i source_video.avi -vn -ar 44100 -ac 2 -ab 128k -f mp3 sound.mp3

    for my purpose "2 minutes" for "21 minutes" is a long time. I need to speed up this as much as possible.

    could someone please tell me what are the factors that control the conversion speed ?

    currently I'm using a SATA hard disk with 7500rmp, will it speed up the conversion process if I upgrade my hard disk to SSD ?

    Thank you !
