Re: figuring out Parallel::ForkManager slots

As far as i remember your task isn't for low budget equipment. Don't you need a wide gamut monitor to even view these videos? Something like the ColorEdge series from Eizo up from model CG247X? Not to talk about a fat machine with many cores, big RAM and big fast SSD's.

What about an investment in some pro software? On the Mac there is Final Cut Pro X and Compressor. About € 400 together. Little money compared to the hardware investment. I don't know what is available/similiar for the Linux or Win platform. Just some thoughts. Please correct me if i'm totally wrong. Regards, Karl

How I encode works fine. It just happens to be that before I updated, wine somehow ran multiple instance out of the same prefix directory, and then when I updated it didn't. Some sources are 1080p 8-bit videos, some are 2160p 10-bit HDR videos. The stuff gets viewed on a 4k HDR TV anyway. You don't need anything other than a beefy CPU to simply encode video. That's all I'm doing here, and cropping, which is a simple task. Professional video editing requires fast disk access and lots of RAM.	[reply]
