I've used ffmpeg on an older/slower system like this (500Mhz range), and can tell you that a typical 90 minute movie took well over 2 days to transcode even on an optimized P4. So even accelerated, you'd still be over a day to encode a movie on the N900. It may be quicker if you're not doing video encoding (eg just changing the audio format), but it's pretty intensive even for just that.

you guys serious with this? I have a video converter on pc but using it pushes my core 2 duo from 1 to 5% to 100% usage. What made you think an arm processor with 600mhz could convert a video if a intel dual core processor with 2 2.13ghz and l2 cache is at its limit?

So video conversion is possible. Any CPU can handle it. It's just a process. So possible: Yes; Practical: Hardly

So generally speaking it's 100% impossible.
