I would like to know the best (fast) software for video encoding and transcoding video into h.264 that makes use of Intel Quick Sync.

I looked at Media Espresso by Cyberlink but it does not have many features. I can't even put a logo on the video using this. Just that one feature would really help.

But nothing else even comes close to the speed of encoding with my i7 2600k.

I hope I interpreted your question correctly. From Intel's Quick Sync page:

Many independent software vendors (ISVs) have begun optimizing their products for this new technology, including:

Still, if you consider adding a logo as a necessary feature, you're probably gonna have a hard time finding software.

I always use FFMpeg for that.

Decode

ffmpeg -hwaccel qsv -c:v h264_qsv -i input.mp4

Encode

ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:v h264_qsv -global_quality 25 output.mp4

Encode & Decode

ffmpeg -hwaccel qsv -c:v h264_qsv -i input.mp4 -c:v h264_qsv -global_quality 25 output.mp4

"Currently Intel’s Quick Sync transcode is only supported by two applications: Cyberlink’s Media Espresso 6 and Arcsoft’s Media Converter 7." [annadtech]
and both are not advanced in their options.

actually this data is not updated. many more are availble. http://www.intel.com/technology/quicksync/index.htm but they do not support logo overlays.

you should demo ArcSoft MediaImpression® 3 , its a video editor of some sort so mybe...
