Encoding time apparently very long

[fitzner101]

Here is what I have done so far:

Made a presentation and saved it and brought a .avi file from work.

I used "ahead Nero" and it converted the .exe presentation to .avi and I could preview the presentation from Nero.

I went to burn without clicking finish as the instructions read.

Nero was in the process of "encoding" the project and at 10% into the process which took 45 min.

Just a very long process for me and at that rate of process time I could be encoding all day?!!!

However, the .avi I brought over was a 25 min class which I thought that is why it is taking so long.

When all this is said and done (completed) with my VCD, which is first the slide presentation and then the avi or the other way?
