[MEncoder-users] mencoder no sound when reading from DVD

Hello,

on 10/14/2006 08:40 PM The Wanderer said the following:
>>>> WARNING: OUTPUT FILE FORMAT IS _AVI_. See -of help.

Oh, I see. I used KVideoEncoder, so whatever mencoder options are used
were picked by that program. I wanted to generate an MPEG 4 video with
MP3 Audio because that is what Google Video recommends.

At least in KVideoEncoder options, MPEG means MPEG 1 or 2, so that is
not what I wanted.

Anyway, Google Video accepts AVI, so I hope the filename extension is
not a problem. I will know in the next hours when Google Video approves
the video that I uploaded.
