 .B mencoder
 (MPlayer's Movie Encoder) is a simple movie encoder, designed to
 encode MPlayer-playable movies (see above) to other MPlayer-playable formats
-(see below). It encodes to DivX4 (1, 2 or 3 passes), XviD, codecs of
-libavcodec, PCM/MP3/VBRMP3 audio. It also has stream copying abilities, a
-powerful plugin system (crop, expand, flip, postprocess, rotate, scale,
