Now I tested 1.76.00 and various 1.76 test versions. I can't find the old versions numbers, but lat time I used this computer was september or october.

Hi, For some reason the (single) decoder thread is not going fast enough to supply the (multiple) encoder threads, so lots of them are starved of work. Very strange. You could just try turning off all the logging in prefs -> "Advanced". There is quite a lot of it, now, and it's just possible that there's something weird going on there. Otherwise I think you'll need another debug version to narrow down why the decoder thread is taking so long to do some reasonably simple stuff. Thanks!

Manuel - could you just run the Big Buck Bunny benchmark from http://dcpomatic.com/benchmarks/contributing to single that out. Under normal conditions, this should finish on your machine in less than 1min. - Carsten _______________________________________________ DCPomatic mailing list DCPomatic(a)carlh.net http://main.carlh.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dcpomatic
