However I was disappointed to see a lot of the conversion tools either dont use SMP at all, or do not balance the workload evenly across processors, or require ugly hacks to use SMP (eg invoking distributed encoding options). I get the impression that Open Source projects are a bit slow on the uptake here? Which Open Source video conversion apps take full native advantage of SMP?

And before you ask, no I dont want to pick up the code and add SMP support myself, thanks."
