There's your problem, and it has nothing to do with mencoder.  With
standard (alphabetical) sorting you get 1.jpg, then you get
10.jpg, then 100.jpg, etc. etc.  You should always do an 'ls' with the
wildcard you want to use to see what you get before actually trying it
for real.

You can rename all those files with enough leading zeros so that they
sort correctly (-vo jpeg/png does it that way), or you can use a more
advanced glob. eg.:  mf://?.jpg, ??.jpg, ???.jpg
