[AG-TECH] H.264 bittersweet experience.

I'm happy that we now can send full frame video with the new
h.264/MPEG-4 codecs. I am also dismayed that the codecs are such CPU
hogs. On my current system, it seems I can only run two video sources
before nailing the CPU at 100%. I can't do much else. I'm about to setup
a second machine to capture two additional sources, I need to stream
four sources for this performance at the end of the month.
 
Is this something that is being looked at? Are others experiencing the
same thing? What does everyone else, that tried it, think? Are others
still seeing the flashing white lines when the source is connected via
firewire?
 
later,
 
Jimmy
