Fine - I can live with this as it's only a small number of DVDs that are 
affected.

These I have.

I was, previously.  It was uninstalled as a dependency when I removed the 
livna ffmpeg package.  I have downloaded the .tar.gz and had intended 
compiling it later today, but I'll try the mjpegtools from ATrpms.  The link 
you gave me says 'mjpegtools-devel' - is this right?

I haven't tried any of these things :-)  My need is simple, but important to 
me.  I use mjpegtools for processing video from an analogue camcorder to 
create DVDs.
