hi, i posted this to core forum because i use hb on all 3 os. it would be cool to enter the maximum cpu utilisation in the gui.
example: i have a quadcore, x264 autodetects them and is going to use 4x100%, with a slider in gui i can go to 0-100% for cpu usage, 0 means pause, 100% means 4x100%, 25% means 4x25% (or to use only 1x100% in this case, dont know whats better).
motivation: if i have time to do an encode, for example 1 day, and i want to take care of the temerature and the "cpu fan pwm noise" on a notebook, i can throttle the cpu usage.
best regards, chief

This feature has already been rejected before.
Re: Request: cpu usage cap
Right-click the proccess in task manager and choose "Set Affinity" and reduce the number of CPU cores it uses. That'll reduce power consumtion and heat and the fans should spin down.
