    Im making a svcd. In the "how to" it says that TMPGEnc will finish the three cds in 3 to 20 hours. Ive had it running for days. It takes about 30-40 hours pr. cd!?! Is this normal? Ive got a P3 500Mhz, 256 Mb RAM and more then enough disc space. Please give me a comment.

    Yeah, slow computer -> takes time. I know that, I have P3/500 with 384MB and yes it takes forever. But after first CD is finished, you can preview it with your Media Player and determine based on the quality if it is worth the time and hassle and if not, simply stop the process and go with VCD :)
