I've recently switched from software to hardware encoding so I've had

Yeah I think mencoder is faster (its certainly easier to figure out
than transcode).  The processor may have something to do with it too,
P4's excel at code that has very predictable branches like video
encoding.  Less branch mispredict penalty means they can really take
advantage of their deep pipelines.
