You should probably use ffmpeg, mencoder is not maintained well (the only advantage of mencoder would be the possibility to use the yadif de-interlacer). > In the first instance, being able to play them in mplayer would help.

If you are playing a recorded stream (as in your sample) it has absolutely no relevance, 2) When sending mplayer debug information (that is very welcome!), please do not separate std-out from std-err, it only makes analysis harder (that is at least my opinion). > I have attached stdout + stderr + channels.conf (from w_scan). > > We have the following problems: > > i) tsprog is ignored. We get all channels and can tab between them. I am not sure: Does -demuxer lavf support tsprog? > ii) there is no sound I suspect that there was no sound recorded and looking at the channels.conf line below, there is no sound pid entry.
