Hmm, no dice.
-force-avi-aspect does make the warning go away, but the file still
doesn't play in WMP.

Since the codec is apparently installed (mplayer classic plays the
file), I'm thinking that WMP can't cope with the AVI format that
mencoder produces.

Opening the resulting AVI in G-Spot, it will tell that there's 5
blocks of "MPlayer junk data", and an ISFT block (whatever that is)
mentioning "MEncoder version ...etc...".  Maybe that's what WMP does
not like.  Hmm.....
