Thanks, I'll give it a go at 22 and see how that comes out. Edit: Results in a 5.68GB file (no audio yet), just need to play it on the big screen and see how it compares.

Got to say I've just had one of those moments that makes you smile.

I have an old i750 running at 3.6Ghz and my new X99 5820K running at 4.5Ghz. Now I had 1 encoding server on the i750 and two on the X99, I'm now running 6 encoding servers on the X99, each time I added a server the FPS increased, tried adding another on the i750 and it made no difference, but boy it does work well on the X99. Currently cruising at just over 43FPS between them all in H265, gained about another 10FPS by adding the 4 additional servers.
