.SH DESCRIPTION
.I mencoder
MEncoder (MPlayer's Movie Encoder) is a simple movie encoder, designed to
encode MPlayer-playable movies (AVI/DVD/VCD/VOB/MPG/MOV/VIV/NET) to other
MPlayer-playable formats (see below). Currently it's in beta stage, and encodes
only to DivX4 (1 or 2 passes) video, PCM/MP3/VBRMP3 audio. Also has stream
copying abilities. In the future, there will be cropping, resizing filters, and
other interesting stuff.

.SH "GENERAL OPTIONS"
.TP
.I NOTE
Every "flag" option has "noflag" pair, e.g. -flag opposite is -noflag
.TP
.I NOTE
CHECK THE HTML DOCUMENTATION TOO !
.TP
.B \-vcd <track number>
Encode the specified VCD track.
.TP
.B \-dvd <title number>
Encode the specified DVD title.
.TP
.B \-chapter <chapter id>
Use with -dvd option (see above). Start encoding at the specified chapter.
.TP
.B \-dvdangle <angle id>
Use with -dvd option (see above), and if the DVD disc has multiple angles.
It will encode the angle specified here.
.TP
.B \-dvdkey <key>
Used to decrypt CSS-encrypted streams on hard disk (with given CSS decrypt
key).
.TP
.B \-nobps
Used only for AVIs. Doesn't use the bps value in the AVI header, instead
calculates it.
.TP
.B \-aid <audio stream id>
If the source media contains multiple audio streams (for example DVDs), encode
the specified one.
.TP
.B \-vid <video stream id>
If the source media contains multiple video streams, encode the specified one.
.TP
.B \-pp <value>
Apply a postprocess filter to enhance image quality. (values TODO)
.TP
.B \-vc <codec name>
Use specified codec (according to codecs.conf) for decoding input video
stream.
.TP
.B \-ac <codec name>
Use specified codec (according to codecs.conf) for decoding input audio
stream.
.TP
.B \-vfm <video codec family>
Force decoding by using a specific codec FAMILY, and FALLBACK to default
if failed. For examples see MPlayer manpage.
.TP
.B \-afm <audio codec family>
Force decoding by using a specific codec FAMILY, and FALLBACK to default
if failed. For examples see MPlayer manpage.
.TP
.B \-include
specify config file to be parsed after the default
.TP
.B \-mc\ seconds/5frame
maximum sync correction per 5 frames (in seconds).
Use -mc 0 to disable input A/V sync.
.TP
.B \-v
Increase verbosity.
.TP
.B \-ovc <codecname>
Encode with the given codec (codec names are from codecs.conf).
Examples:
-ovc help get help
-ovc copy no encoding, just streamcopy
-ovc divx4 encode to DivX4
.TP
.B \-oac <codecname>
Encode with the given codec (codec names are from codecs.conf).
Examples:
-oac help get help
-oac copy no encoding, just streamcopy
-oac pcm encode to uncompressed PCM
-oac mp3lame encode to MP3 (using Lame)
.TP
.B \-divx4opts
If encoding to DivX4, you can specify its parameters here, like:
-divx4opts br=1800:deinterlace:key=250
Available options:
help get help
br=XXX specify bitrate in
kbit <4-16000> or
bit <16001-24000000>
key=XXX maximum keyframe interval
(in frames)
deinterlace enable deinterlacing
(don't use, DivX4 is buggy!)
q=XXXX quality (1-fastest, 5-best)
min_quant=XXX minimum quantizer (0-32)
max_quant=XXX maximum quantizer (0-32)
rc_period=XXX rate control period
rc_reaction_period=XXX rate control
reaction period
rc_reaction_ratio=XXX rate control
reaction ratio
.TP
.B \-lameopts
If encoding to MP3 with libmp3lame, you can specify its parameters here, like:
-lameopts br=192
Available options:
help get help
br=XXX specify bitrate in
kbit <0-1024>
(only for CBR)
q=XXX Quality
(0-highest, 9-fastest)
(for VBR)
vbr=XXX variable bitrate method
0=cbr
1=mt
2=rh(default)
3=abr
4=mtrh
cbr constant bitrate
mode=XXX 0=stereo
1=joint-stereo
2=dualchannel
3=mono
(default: auto)
padding=XXX 0=no
1=all
2=adjust
ratio=XXX compression ratio <1-100>
.TP
.B \-pass <1/2>
With this you can encode 2pass DivX4 files. First encode with -pass 1, then
with the same parameters, encode with -pass 2.
.TP
.B \-ofps <fps>
The output file will have different frame/sec than the source.
.TP
.B \-o <filename>
Outputs to the given filename, instead of the default 'test.avi' .
.TP
.B \-frames <number>
Encode only given number of frames.
