More encoding woes...

Spent most of today and yesterday editting this weeks ScreenCastsOnline show on my MacBook Pro using FCP. I'd hoped to get the show out today but I went to town a bit on the opening graphics and as it's a sponsored show, I want to get everything just right.
Had a few strange anomolies as I re-editted some sections today but managed to fix it.
Started encoding the HD version around 11:30pm. It's along show (around 40 minutes) so should take a couple of hours.
Been watching the progress bar slowly creep along and it's still only 28% and the Estimated Time for completion is "About 4 hours".
Doh!
Somethings not right
Too late to wait and too late to fix so I'm off to bed and the show will have to be a day late.
Hate it when that happens :-(
Update: The following morning the encoding has finished ! Watched it through and there's a minor glich on the video and audio about 30 minutes in. Normally I'd let it go but seeing as the show is already late I figure another couple of hours won't make much difference so I'm re-encoding. Watch this space!
Update: Done!
