As of Divx 6.1, it now supports dual processors, dual cores, and HT. This is awesome news for everyone with HTPCs. Personally I've been thinking about upgrading my encoding rig. I was just going to go with a super fast single processor system. Now I'm planning on saving up for a dual processor dual-core AMD X2 system. It's gonna rock!! :rock: (Something like this (http://www.tyan.com/products/html/thunderk8we.html).)

BTW, they have also upped the HD encoding bitrate to a maximum of 6Mbps. Oh yeah.

You couldn't encode higher than 6Mbps before if you wanted to? Strange. :confused:

Not to hijack the thread but that's a nice looking board. Dual PCIx slots is awesome. I love the AMD X2 processor. I ended up buying a HP a1250n about 2 months ago. The price after rebate was too good to pass up. I upgraded the video card to GeForce 6600 PCIx and added 2 more 528MB strips of ram for a total of 2GB of RAM. The system just pain flys. I can be playing Call of Duty 2 in full resolution, and have my virus or spyware scanner running in the background and I don't even get a hickup. Encoding should be a breeze, though I have not tried yet.
