The export is taking a lot longer than I anticipated, I have encoded DVD mpeg video before at blazing speeds before (when backing up some of my more treasured film DVD's) but using the default options on kino seems to be taking ages (given that this is a pretty quick machine).
Try tweaking some of the encoder settings, encoding mpeg does seem to be a bit of a black art, and having tonnes and tonnes of free memory seems to help lots.
Sepia effect seems to be just what I was looking for, there are some other interesting looking filters under the pipe menu that don't seem to do anything at the moment. I would like to add a film scratches filter if anyone knows of anything available.
If you start getting into that kind of thing then maybe you want to start looking at Cinelerra http://heroinewarrior.com/cinelerra.php3 it really is a daddy of a system but the "recommended system" is
Dual Opteron 275 4 * 1 Gig Registered PC3200 RAM 500 GB SATA drive Tyan S2885 motherboard Gigabit ethernet
of course, when i'm rich and I can afford such a system i'm going to be giving it a whirl. Of course if anyone around here is feeling rich+generous then please let me know ;)
Thanks Adam
