Software :: Encoders Don't Like Gpus?
May 1, 2011
I have noticed that a lot of encoders are not fully coded to handle distributing work to the gpu, even when the gpu can handle it. I am think it's an issue of lack of Knowledge and motivated creative coders. Like x264 for example would be one of the fastest encoders on the planet if it could get a team of programmers that code code for such jobs. I have talked to some x264 people, and they say those project always start and get no where. So what is the issue? Is it the complex coding required or lack of motivation from talented programs?
I am saying the hardware can handle what is thrown at it, but why can't we code for it?

I am Ubuntu user, having only recently left the stinking, bloated corpse that is Windows ($225 for an upgrade to Win7 is just obscene). I have a huge library of Mp3's, which I have managed to enable support for on Ubuntu, and have installed Amarok, as I didn't think much of rythmbox.
So far so good, but I still need a program to rip/convert the rest of my CD's, and to convert lossless files. I'm looking for a CD ripper with similar functionality to EAC (Exact Audio Copy). One aspect I am looking for is the ability to manually change the Mp3 encoder used by the program. I am partial to the lame 3.98 encoder, and would like to keep using it. If the program already uses this encoder (or a close version), then that's fine and no need for the ability to manually change the encoder.
