I noticed that while 'encoding the subset' on partial encodings, the space for
the resulting file is reduced as intended, but not the encoding time. Seems as if a
partial encode will take as much time as a full encode.
Could this be improved? I understand that the encoder needs to run through the whole file
at some point, but it seems it will also take the time to encode all frames and just
'discard' the unnecessary ones?
Is this needed to keep video and audio in sync?
That is strange. I've been doing a bit of work on benchmarking DVD-o-matic
[see
http://carlh.net/software/dvdomatic/benchmarks/ for the story so far]
and the reduction of time taken when trimming seems to be what one might expect with the
one test that I've done. How many frames is the file you are testing, and how much
are you trimming?
(I'm now using the Mac version 0.115, but this is
the same under windows)
Also, the DCI naming options include the option to use OV or VF. Is there any way to
actually create a VF only or a multipackage, e.g. one OV version, one subtitle version,
one localized version, each using the same video file?
There is not, at the moment. I'll put it on the list.
Best regards
Carl
