Yep - you're going from 30 fps to 24 fps, so of course!

You may want to do something like:

mencoder -oac copy \
         -ovc lavc \
         -vf scale \
         -zoom \
         -xy 640 \
         -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:nr=200:mbd=2:autoaspect:v4mv:trell:vbitrate=1800 \
         -ofps 24000/1001 \
         -alang jp \
         -sid 0 \
         -o arusu.avi dvd://1 >& /dev/null

This way you won't see any messages about frame_* ;^)
