Converting
Convert >> begins conversion:
Overall progress is shown at the top, and time remaining is also
presented.
Multiple CPU cores will be used at the same time by each
encoder, in the above example
two encoders are running side by side. It is possible to force usage of specific
encoder count, or CPUs per encoder with the DSP Effect
'Multi-CPU Force'.
Whilst converting the number of encoders in use can be changed by selecting
Options >> Encoding, this change is only for the
current encoding queue.
Encoding Priority instructs Windows how much time it
should give to dBpoweramp in relation to other programs, set to Idle to
allow the conversion to progress in the background and not interrupt your
work. Even on a lower setting, 100% of the core is used.
