Yes, this could be a problem with mp3lame. I'm not a MEncoder developer but 
I've tested several files here with the same options you use and they all 
converted. I don't think I can help more on that issue, maybe wait until a 
developer responds

As for the errors, VDecorder init failed is because it has opened first the 
MPEG PS decoder but your file is not MPEG PS rather a normal MPEG 1 or 2 
file. Nothing to worry, I see it a lot of the times here. If a decoder is 
incompatible with a video format, after it opens it will print some 
errors/warnings that it cannot play this file and it will exit. Then, 
MEncoder will try the next decoder (libmpeg2 in your case) which successfully 
has detected the format of your file
