Mencoder Benchmark - OpenBenchmarking.org

This test uses mplayer's mencoder utility and the libavcodec family for testing the system's audio/video encoding performance.

To run this test with the Phoronix Test Suite, the basic command is: phoronix-test-suite benchmark mencoder.

* Uploading of benchmark result data to OpenBenchmarking.org is always optional (opt-in) via the Phoronix Test Suite for users wishing to share their results publicly.
** Data based on those opting to upload their test results to OpenBenchmarking.org and users enabling the opt-in anonymous statistics reporting while running benchmarks from an Internet-connected platform.

Based on OpenBenchmarking.org data, the selected test / test configuration (Mencoder 1.3.0 - AVI To LAVC) has an average run-time of 2 minutes. By default this test profile is set to run at least 3 times but may increase if the standard deviation exceeds pre-defined defaults or other calculations deem additional runs necessary for greater statistical accuracy of the result.

Based on public OpenBenchmarking.org results, the selected test / test configuration has an average standard deviation of 0.4%.
