[MEncoder-users] svq3 file plays fine in mplayer, mencoder breaks on it

[Bram Avontuur]

Hi,

Using the latest mplayer trunk, I can playback a specific svq3 file
using mplayer, but mencoder borks on it using the ffsvq3 decoder.  

Test file: http://bram.name/~brama/test_svq3_mencoder.mov (5MB)

Mencoder cmd + output:

~botr/botr/localroot/bin/mencoder 
"$IN" -o "$OUT" -oac mp3lame -ovc xvid -xvidencopts bitrate=600

The qtsvq3 decoder doesn't work at all:

~botr/botr/localroot/bin/mencoder "$IN" -o "$OUT" -oac mp3lame -vc qtsvq3 -ovc xvid -xvidencopts bitrate=600
