[mythtv-users] mythburn - wow - this takes a LOOOONG time...

[Jesse Guardiani]

So, I bought a nice 8x DVD+R burner
for cheap, thinking that my biggest
problem would be speed issues when
I burn from a file stored over NFS.
But it turns out that is the LEAST
of my problems!

I haven't even gotten to the point where
I can attempt a burn. My poor 733mhz CPU
is still transcoding my PVR 350's nuv
file up to DVD resolutions!

By my calculations, it's going to take
about 6 HOURS to transcode a 30 minute
show... man.... and this project-x
thing is running java of all things,
which certainly doesn't help the speed!

So how do you folks go about burning
DVDs? Do you just have massive 2.4ghz
processors and burn over night, or
am I doing something incredibly wrong?
