Don't the bit reservoir and some other features add inter-frame dependencies? Perhaps you could distribute 100 frames or so at a time to minimize inter-frame dependencies (and the overhead of communications latency). - Original Message - From: "Takehiro Tominaga" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <

I guess I should have specified the purpose. I'm a netcaster using Shoutcast and need to convert my source files to 24kbps. I am wondering which MP3-producing codec people think is the best for such low bitrates. Thanks, Graham Spice -- MP3 ENCODER mailing list ( http://geek.rcc.se/mp3encoder/

I've found the better solution is to distribute the encoding per song instead of per frame. No changes are required to whatever encoder you are using. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Nick Burch Sent: Monday, January 24, 2000 4:36 AM To: [E

I think that muddying up the codebase for this would be a loss esp when it's so easy to write a frontend script that encodes seperate files on seperate computers. Who has so much to encode that they need a cluster but only has a few files? On Mon, 24 Jan 2000, Takehiro Tominaga wrote: > I thin

I think WAN-distributed mp3 encoder is hard and not a good idea, too because of the network data flow. But a computer cluster connecting with not WAN but LAN, the distributed encoder would be a good plan. The latest GOGO-no-coder supports multi thread. With this feature, it use multi CPU to enco

Hi I'm not all that clued up on the algorithms, but I think there is a more fundamental problem with your idea than the encoder. Distributed.net will dish out about 15k a day to a pII-300 running 24/7. Seti@Home will dish out about 500k a day to a 24/7 pII-300. 128kbps mp3 data is about 1mb
