Should CPU Be 100% when using all software en/decoding?

[justLooking]

Playing with converting BR50 to DVD5

Using 100% software, with the source ISO image on E:, and destination of C: (Physically different drivers)

Currently getting 37 FPS, and very little CPU usage.

Was expecting 100% CPU usage; but get anywhere from 20% to 50% max and maxing at about 10Meg/sec in read/write

Don't think its Disk I/O, as I'm I'm able to run Crystal Disk Mark against both drives (I/O Jumps up to about 120/Meg Sec while testing)

Whats really strange, is that while running Crystal mark, my frame rate actually goes up about 5 frames/sec over the time.

Its almost like its a DvdFab software issue of some sort

Anyone else seen anything similar, and if so, any work arounds?

Thanks

I see this with v8.1.1.2 also. I think there is a problem with this release, try v8.0.7.3 if you have it.

Hi Signals

I might have a older copy on another machine (not really sure as I haven't been really using DVD fab until lately)

As long as it aint me, then I guess I'm ok. Was like augh.. brand new machine and 25% cpu.. Was wondering what setting I'd messed up.. lol

Thanks for the confirmation that it aint me (guess I have to revert my bios settings back as most likely the changes I made will make it me :-)

A bit better using 8.0.7.3

k, Yanked a older copy down

A bit Better initially.. actually now even better ;-)

Around 68 FPS, 50-95% CPU (seems around 80-90% on average) Disk read 11.5M/sec Write: 3M/Sec. Expected conversion around 40 minutes based on estimates

Better than before.

Thanks for the info

That is better, glad it helped. Try the next release when it comes out.

Try the new v8.1.1.5 Beta, it fixed all these problems for me.
