I have some problem with mu DVD player and I found that this problem can be solved with coding movies with DivX 5.1.1 version or else but < 5.2 version, so how I can define wich version of mencoder codecs corresponds to DivX 5.1.1 version? I look on mplayerhq.hu page but there is only DivX5 - no other information about versions.

Mencoder can use divx libraries, however it is not very good way. 
libavcodec with mpeg4 option
produces good, compatible streams. You should look in the archives of 
this maillist for details.
Just try various options and see what happens with your particular 
DVD-player. Such devices
may behave very strange, without model name it's impossible to advice 
any options.
