[MEncoder-users] Mencoder and FLV (Flash video)

[RyES RyES]

Hello everyone, I'm new to the list but have been using Mencoder for some 
time now.  Guillaume mentioned to me that flv encoding should work in 
mencoder now.  Right now I have mencoder output to mjpeg and then convert to 
flv with ffmpeg, which sucks.

As noted in the latest DOCs 
(http://mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en/menc-feat-enc-libavcodec.html), flv is now 
a supported libavcodec codec.  Unfortunately I could not get it to work at 
all.

This works in ffmpeg:
ffmpeg -y -i 1.avi -ar 22050 -acodec mp3 -vcodec flv 2.flv

But in mencoder nothing works, this is one of the commands I tried, I tried 
hundreds of variations:
mencoder 1.avi -o 2.flv -ovc lavc -lavcopts 
vcodec=flv:acodec=mp3:abitrate=56 -srate 22050
Something comes out, but nothing plays correctly.

You can get a flv player here:

I already donated $100 to mplayer when the server died, but since this is 
important for my company, I will donate another $100 to mplayer or pay the 
person that gives me the working command.  The person can choose if they 
want the money or if they want it donated in their name.  I must be about to 
repro it on my computer.

Thanks,
Ryan
