Hey - we are having a problem with a realtime app with dropping performance, particularly running 2 avis.

May be a long shot but sounds like the problem you had (?)

We are on Dell Optiplex G260 with P4-1.7

Am wondering which bios settings you looked at - could you let me know?

Just wanted to add this: LEAD MJPEG MCMP Video Codec really works GREAT indeed. Note that my first guess was to use MJPEG-B anyway as it's perfectly balanced for playback / compression.
Anyway I tried several other MJPEG-B codecs like teh one from Morgan Multimedia and this one does not work with Resolume.
Thanks for pointing me to the Resolume-compatible LEAD MJPEG codec!
(You guys should distrubute this with a commercial copy of Resolume!)

As great the LEAD MJPEG may look in most cases it's pretty much useless when you use 2 or more videos at once. Also becuase it's jpeg it has very nasty block artifact that become visible when keying or using some other transitions. and on top of that it doesent have keyframes, so fast random frame access is impossible. but i agree the encoding quality is great.

the way to go at this moment seems to be: Indeo Codec, a keyframe every frame, and no data limit.

i agree - indeo has been working well for us for quite a while now - the good thing is quicktime has an indeo extension (up you update it) which means you can export clips from a mac using quicktime -if you are unfortunate enough to be using a mac..... ;)
