Pulp Fiction barely encoding with 0.8.5b1 - GLITCH?

Hey all,

Trying to encode Pulp Fiction with 2 pass and on the second pass the encoding process slowed to 8fps with 7 hours ETA. This will result in a total of a 10 hour encoding process. I'm sure there is a bug in the process.

My settings:

Duration of Film - 2:29
MP4 H.264
1350 kbps 2 pass
same as source fps
x264 main
704x370 output / 839x370 anamorphic output
no deinterlace

Now the new release is great and I figured would even encode slightly quicker, so....what gives?

to the developers, could this be a problem with the fps setting?

I currently have it on same as source but perhaps I need to manually set it? If so, how do I find what fps to set it at?

"Same as source" = 23.97fps always , so you're fine there since you're working with a film source.

You might be experiencing the audio bugaboo in the "no audio" thread since encoding fps tanks as a symptom of this. Read through that thread.
