yeah, i know!  this is what has always worked for me before, which is why 
i'm so confused.  i also tried "-vf expand=::::1", but it had no effect.

you're right, so i just did that.  took a bit to get ffmpeg and mplayer 
all compiling together nicely...but the end result is

MEncoder dev-CVS-051119-12:02-3.4.3 (C) 2000-2005 MPlayer Team

still has the same problem.  no subtitles appear in the output video, no 
matter what i do.

thanks,
