I only seem to notice lengthy conversions for Jeopardy!, is there somethings that makes the entire task take so much longer than other 30 minute shows?

Your conversion is taking just a few seconds. The metadata look up on the internet is taking 17 minutes. Could be a bad internet connection, website or maybe that you’re not running the latest version. Try the latest 2.5.3 BETA

Ok I just updated, will have to wait and see Monday as that’s the next new episode.
Thanks!
I have noticed exactly the same thing only with Jeopardy!. I am running 2.5.3 Beta. I don’t think it is MCEBuddy. I was going to try to have it not check for the metadata on Jeopardy to see if that helps as I don’t need that info.
Is that an MCE buddy config or something outside of MCE buddy? I haven’t had time to check these recordings lately.
MCE Buddy setting. I have a specific conversion task for Jeopardy, and under the Advanced Settings, Expert Setting I have unchecked Download Information and Add Information. Cuts off 17-25 minutes from my conversion. This information isn’t important to me as I just watch the show and then delete it.
Ok thanks, I’ll check these out when I get home later today.
