| My specs:Intel E6550 CPU, 2GB,ddr2,XP SP3. 500GB HDD. I use Virtual dub,X264 encoder,i start with a xvid video from Hypercam 2,a screen recorder,i stuck it in virtual dub,all goes well until it finished processing a video. When done i close Virtual dub,a minute goes by,then the CPU utilization goes up to 80% on both traces on the Task manager. This annoying post process CPU hog thing cripples the system for up to 5 minutes. There is no new process in task manager and nothing seems be loading or starting up when this happens,always and only when i have used Virtual dub,never another time. I had virtual dub do this to me when i first began using it,i must have done something to the settings in Virtual dub,the CPU hog thing went away,i encoded 40 videos in about 2 months,all Xvid(Hypercam2) to x264 in virtual dub, no problems. It's getting on my nerves,any suggestions on what might be causing this? |

| Audio? If disable A/V Interleaving VD writes entire audio length in single block after video? |

| Before you close VirtualDub, try changing the video codec to (Uncompressed) before you exit. This will drop the video codec immediately and isolate or rule it out as a trigger. I have seen cases where plugins, codecs, or drivers lose control of worker threads. If that doesn't work, right-click on virtualdub.exe in Task Manager and generate a dump file -- if you post that I can take a look at what might be getting stuck. This will be a pretty big file, though, so you'll need to compress it and use a drop-box file posting service. |
