|

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

<LI>read <B>MPlayer</B>'s compilation instructions, it contains info about
|
|
how to install <I>libdvdread</I> for <B>DVD</B> support, etc.</LI>
|
|
<LI>download the newest <B>DivX4linux</B> libs
|
|
from <A HREF="http://avifile.sourceforge.net/download.htm">avifile.sourceforge.net</A>,
|
|
and have them PROPERLY installed. This is needed for DivX4 (1/2 pass)
|
|
encoding.</LI>
|
|
<LI>download and install <B>libmp3lame</B> (from lame 3.89beta or lame CVS). This
|
|
is needed for CBR/VBR MP3 audio encoding ability. Note that a single
|
|
<CODE>lame</CODE> binary isn't sufficient.</LI>
|
|
<LI>use <CODE>./configure</CODE> with optional parameters as usual, and
|
|
type : <CODE>make mencoder</CODE> . You have to install it manually for
|
|
now.
|

</P>
|
|
|
|
<P>You are ready. As you probably know, other encoding tools need the
|
|
<I>avifile</I> library installed. <B>MEncoder</B> doesn't need it at all.</P>
