[MEncoder-users] mencoder only results 12bpp video

[Dudi Indrasetiadi]

Dear everybody.

Hi I'm new here, but I already have some problem. I would very
appreciate every single, err..., enlightenment from all of you ;-).

I tried to rip dvd with this script:

#script starts
#!/bin/sh

mencoder dvd://2 \
-oac copy \
-ofps 23.976 -vf scale=480:360:1,hqdn3d=2:1:2,spp=6,kerndeint \
-ovc xvid -xvidencopts
vhq=1:closed_gop:gmc:chroma_opt:chroma_me:me_quality=6:tresllis:hq_ac:keyframe_boost=10:quant_type=mpeg:qpel:pass=1
\
-o /dev/null && 

mencoder dvd://2 \
-oac mp3lame -lameopts cbr:br=112:mode=1:vol=6 -srate 44100 \
-ofps 23.976 -vf scale=480:360:1,hqdn3d=2:1:2,spp=6,kerndeint \
-ovc xvid -xvidencopts
vhq=1:closed_gop:gmc:chroma_opt:chroma_me:me_quality=6:tresllis:hq_ac:keyframe_boost=10:quant_type=mpeg:qpel:pass=2:bitrate=-600000
\
-o Mymovie.MEncoder.XviD.avi
#script ends

Any other things went fine except for the resulting video is only
12bpp (I got the statement 12bpp from MPlayer's stdout when playing
the ripped-movie), just like this:

VIDEO:  [XVID]  480x360  12bpp  23,976 fps  1028,1 kbps (125,5 kbyte/s)
Clip info:
 Software: MEncoder 1.0pre6-3.4.1

no matter what the source is, cartoon or else, interlaced or
progressif. I've tried to force the palette with:

-vf format=fmt=rgb24

or

-vf format=fmt=bgr24

but mencoder jusat crash with segmentation fault. I wanted to have
24bpp resulting video. Can anybody help me please. This is my XviD and
MPlayer version:
 
xvidcore-1.1.0-beta2 (latest release from xvid.org)
mencoder-1.0-0.pre6.7plf (binary compiled by PLF)
mplayer-1.0-0.pre6.7plf (idem)

TIA.
