Any handbrake experts?
I'm trying to rip some of my personal blue ray home videos and I am down to about 5 fps using a reduced resolution of 1280 x 720 and an RF or 20. It's gonna take me almost 48 hours to rip about 9 hours worth which is one part of my personal blue ray collection of home movies (which I burned myself).
I'm worried this is gonna kill my Macbook too. What can I do? I had no idea it was this intensive?

I wouldn't call myself an expert, but I've used Handbrake a number of times - it does generally take ages to process HD stuff, but if you think of the amount of data you're processing (1920×1080 images resized to whatever resolution you set, plus 6 channels of high quality audio re-encoded...) then 5FPS actually seems pretty good! I've not found a way of speeding it up yet, without substantially compromising on quality (or getting a faster machine!)

I'm guessing you have an external Blu-ray drive on the Macbook and you're ripping direct from the disk via Mac OS X?
If so then it could be the speed of the read from the drive that might be contributing to the slowness of things.
You could try actually ripping the Blu-Ray to an ISO file, and then try the encoding from that iOS, which would be on the local machine. obviously that's a two tier process, as opposed to the single tier of doing the encode direct from the disk.

It's a lot of hassle.

Best to have PC which you can overclock,just due Handbrake is very CPU/GPU extensive
With newer COU in Macbook you should be able to have reasonable times,but with overclocked CPU you should be able have much better results
SSD will not help with better/faster rendering(encoding),its down to CPU or GPU nothing more

Hey Jura
How is the wagon running these days have you run in the new engine yet? any ideas when you will be back up to Santa Pod? I was up there today but it was very very quiet I was surprised with it being such a nice day weather wise! I did not see a single Scooby there and only one Evo.

We been there,we come there around 5pm(we stuck at traffic)..On way back again we stuck at traffic and we come home at 7:30pm
Engine is after mapping(400bhp at 0.7bar,1.55bar 481bhp),but think exhaust is biggest restriction,we will be replacing the exhaust in coming weeks and then again mapping,we will see
Hopefully next month we will be back on the Santa pod,wish we are come sooner,we will try at least setup and LC.

Lastly, I would recommend MeGUI and x264 encoding over handbrake.
