Hi there,
After being unhappy with the Windows 7 Professional 64 Bit running on my
new old Dell-box (updating all the time, running wild with strange
processes etc.) I installed Linux. Tried an old DELL 10.x install first,
but that that did not have the necessary dependencies for DCP-o-matic.
Upgrading to version 12–with some complaints by the installer–let me
finally add the package, but it would not start DCP-creation.
Putting a new 14 on the box failed, but I could do a clean install of
version 12. Major performance increases? DCP-o-matic encoded at a little
over 1 fps, as opposed to >10 under Windows. OK, it is using about one
of the 24 cores available…
If you go into Preferences -> General, is "Threads to use for encoding on
this host" set to a good high value?
Cheers,
Carl
