    @ditche - thanks for the results. I just updated the db today, but I'll add your results on the next update. About the latest build, yeah, I know they keep getting faster and faster. Continually updating can get confusing (hell, having two versions of x264 is confusing enough)!

    The nice thing about it is that as far as I can tell, the rank-order of results hasn't changed. In other words, the magnitude if the encode time may improve as x264 becomes more refined, but the systems should run it more or less in the order presented with the included exe's.

    x264 .bat file: 'tee' is not recognized

    Sent a PM, but will post here for others who might get same error.

    :wall: Trying to bench my Asus P5k D w/ Q6600[G0] in XP (SP2). Upon running the x264 .bat file, I get: 'tee' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

    Apparently, "tee run1pass2.log" isn't working, for some reason. Any ideas? :think:

    x264 HD Results... issues...

    For whatever reason, the .vbs file would not run, so I ran the benchmark from the .bat file in the 'test' folder. Note that x264-819 crashed twice during the process.
