I was working with the Videora iPhone converter, but I'm not sure if there was a problem or not.

It said the conversion was at 100%, but it still seemed to be processing the video, and at over 2 hours of processing, I killed the job.

How long does it usually take? I'm on Windows Vista system with 1 gig memory.....

Am I doing something incorrectly????

Thanks

Yes, the "progress meter" is a bit wacked, but two methods you can use to determine if your movie is still being processed:

1. go to the "console" and click "Enable Console". If messages get printed of the form:

frame=59280 fps= 20 q=21.0 size= 528573kB time=1977.7 bitrate=2189.4kbits/s

Then it is still chugging away

2. Check the process listing in the task manager if ffmpeg is still sucking up CPU, then it is still processing the movie file.

Patience is needed.
