I own Popcorn2 and use it on a Core 2 Duo computer to convert my DVDs for use online with Front Row. It works very well but I would like better performance.
My next computer will be a MacPro with either 2 dual-core or 2 quad-core CPUs. My question is, how will Popcorn2 use all this CPU? Is it written to fully support multiple CPUs? Is the threading implimented to exploit all the processing power given to it?
I might pay more to get added performance but if I am wasting money because Popcorn2 won't use it then I'd like to know up front.
Can anyone tell me the facts about how Popcorn functions on multiprocesser systems? Has anyone got real experience watching Popcorn2 running on multiproc systems?
