Re: any way to make devede use both cores

when i run devede from the terminal, you can see that it only seems to be detecting 1 core, but i know there are 2

Re: any way to make devede use both cores

It's not devede what you want to use both cores... it's mencoder

From http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1055802 "Mencoder and dual-processor, post #5"

in ffmpeg this is the option

-ovc xvid -xvidencopts bitrate=900:threads=2

threads=2

means dual core if you have more ... change it
