TMPGEnc will support INTEL P4 (codename Prescott) SSE-3

Pegasys-Inc announces the support of the New Intel Pentium4 (codename Prescott) Streaming SIMD Extension 3 in its next generation main software TMPGEnc 3.0 XPress due to be released for Summer 2004.

The Intel Streaming SIMD Extension 3 (SSE3) is a set of multimedia extension instructions included in the new HT technology Intel Pentium4 (codename Prescott) produced with 90 nm techniques. Compared to previous versions, software optimized for the SSE3 realize better process performances and efficiency.

The new TMPGEnc 3.0 XPress currently in development (first release planned for Summer 2004) is optimized for the latest Intel Pentium 4 processor with HT Technology and also the previous Pentium4.

Processing speed increase by the SSE3 in TMPGEnc 3.0 XPress

TMPGEnc 3.0 XPress uses the new memory access instructions in the latest Intel Pentium 4 processor with HT Technology and also optimize the MPEG-1/2 encoder. The SSE3 shows especially spectacular results in movement search routine acceleration. Moreover, software optimized for previous version of the Intel Pentium 4 processor with HT Technology will also take advantage of the new performances, providing an overall acceleration.
