This is already below the minimum required (I guess you did already read the FAQ)
In all cases, check the tiny output box, if the output file size is incrementing and
showing the already rendered Mbytes then everything is fine..

thanks for that. well the req are nearly met, the processor speed is a bit slower. yes, the output  is increasing of about
40 to 80 kb/s. i assume that super first converts the audio, as the speed at the beginning is fairly paced, after that minute or so it starts slowing down going at a constant speed. may be i need more patience. it is a great tool anyway. thanks
