Convert two videos for iPod at a time on dual CPU Macs
Authored by: cvmarel on Aug 01, '06 09:26:35AM

Hello I am the original creator of this tip.

TylerL, I did not mean at all to offend your App VisualHub and I completely understand that you support forum will have many more cases of problems than successes. I was testing using version 1.0 and I understand that now you have made updates and xgrid is probably working much better.

rhowell, you probably can use multiple instances of iSquint using the method in your link, but my method is more for people who would prefer not to mess around in terminal.

ben_k, yes I have heard cases of iSquint using up to 130% processor power, but if you are doing a large batch you will save a lot of time by getting the processor power above 180%.
