Comparison between CUDA-enabled and software only settings

[armada10]

I did a comparison rip of Star Trek 2009 using cuda and software only settings separately to determine which one was faster, bd50 to bd25 main movie only (about 65% compression). First using cuda-enabled, it took 61+ minutes (task manager showing about 40-50% cpu usage and gpu-z showing 50-60% gpu load and 100% video engine load), second using software only, it took 53+ minutes (100% cpu load and 0% gpu load), pathplayer was disabled on both rips. Anybody else getting the same results, feedback would be appreciated.

Sounds like pretty good times for your setup, I'm using the Galaxy GTX 460 overclocked card w/ Fermi and cuda isn't supported yet(I think), I have my A/V Codec's set to software and am still getting very fast burn times, half hour to forty five minutes. I'm also using CoreAVC.
Hope this helps. Joe

PS: hope someone else jumps into this thread with more experience!

this version supports all fermi cards.

I did this comparison hoping that support for fermi cards would enable faster ripping with cuda enabled compared to software only setting. As you can see the result was the opposite of what I was expecting. Just wondering if its my setup or fermi support has minimal or no impact at all.

I never used the Beta versions, I should have knowing DvdFab stays on top of all the latest technology. Thanks for the info.

i use software software software software+cuda

i have a 6core cpu and it works better than the cuda on the gpu.
