That is significantly slower than what I average ripping for iPod compatibility, but still not to bad.

I have my settings ratcheted up to max. When I was testing quality settings before I started up my batches, I saw some fps up as high as 70 or 80, but for my quality settings, it dropped significantly.

I'll probably have more to report when I do this all over again for my newer movies with 5.1 once I figure out how to do 5.1 AAC (or find a decent ac3/a52 codec that works with front row).

The current svn and next Beta will support 5.1 extraction.
