[MEncoder-users] encoding .3gp file

[Raphael]

Hi,

I have been trying to make a .3gp file for my mobile phone.  I want to 
use mencoder instead of ffmpeg but am having a problem with the amr 
audio codecs it seems.

My experimental command line is

/usr/local/bin/mencoder stream.dump -oac lavc -ovc lavc -lavcopts 
vcodec=h263p:acodec=amr_nb -of lavf -o movie.3gp

which gives the error

"
Couldn't find wav tag for specified codec, exit
"

If I change to -oac pcm then the error dissapears.

I compiled from cvs and included all the amr stuff and libavformat. I am 
also able to play a sample .3gp file made using ffmpeg which implies 
that amr_nb is indeed compiled into mplayer at least.  Here is the 
output of mplayer -v test.3gp so you can see what I am trying to 
reproduce. http://pastebin.com/314426

What could be the problem?

P.S. Here is the complete output of

/usr/local/bin/mencoder -v stream.dump -oac lavc -ovc lavc -lavcopts 
vcodec=h263p:acodec=amr_nb -of lavf -o movie.3gp

-bash-2.05b$ /usr/local/bin/mencoder -v stream.dump -oac lavc -ovc lavc 
-lavcopts vcodec=h263p:acodec=amr_nb -of lavf -o movie.3gp
