I have been using mencoder like this with very good results: cat 00*.vdr|pes2ts2 100 101|ts2ps 100 101|mencoder -of mpeg -mpegopts format=dvd:vbitrate=9000 -o /home/video/$1.mpg -oac copy -ovc copy - > > I patched the bitrate because the nominal 15000 in digital.ts (that > seems to be fake) is not correct for dvd. > Besides a resolution of 528x480 is not valid either, but most modern > players will accept it, so re-encoding > is not worth the hassle. > > For hdtv the basic command is: > > $ mencoder -of mpeg -mpegopts format=dvd:vbitrate=9000 -o hdtv.dvd -oac > copy -ovc lavc \ > -lavcopts > vcodec=mpeg2video:vbitrate=5000:keyint=18:mbd=2:aspect=16/9:vpass=1 -vf > scale=720:-10,expand=720:480 > When I attempt this next command line with "mpeg2video", i get an error saying missing "mpeg2video" codec. But, I know I have the codec installed. Am I doing something wrong with the second command? Best Regards,
