[MEncoder-users] problem with two pass lavc encoding

[Lucas Linard]

I usually get the following output when converting avi to mpeg at the second
pass.

"mencoder -oac lavc -ovc lavc -of mpeg -mpegopts format=dvd:tsaf -vf
crop=640:480,scale=720:480,expand=720:576,harddup -srate 48000 -af
lavcresample=48000 -lavcopts

-o "X_03.mpg" "[omda]_X_TV_03.avi""

"The result is
