Ah, no. I guess I saw "SMP" and thought "Can't do that!", while missing the 
"distributed encoding" part. I'll read it right away.

Yep. My problem is the other way around, though; at approximately 30Mbit, the 
poor PII233 runs flat out of cycles to burn. The slower machine simply can't 
unpack and send YUV at the rate the faster machine (PIII600) can encode it. 
Hm, that was without yuvdenoising, I should do a test with unpacking on the 
slower machine while yuvdenoising and packing on the faster one.

As I guessed. :/ Ohwell. :)
