Hey, it works!

I tried the following, that I found in
http://lists.mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/mencoder-users/2007-April/005683.html
mencoder SANY0271.MP4 -of mpeg -ovc lavc -lavcopts
vcodec=mpeg1video:vbitrate=1000 -mpegopts format=mpeg1 -ofps 25  -oac lavc
-lavcopts acodec=mp2:abitrate=224 -vf harddup -o test.mpg

and I simplified to the following, still working:
mencoder SANY0271.MP4 -of mpeg -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg1video
-mpegopts format=mpeg1  -oac lavc -lavcopts acodec=mp2  -o test.mpg


Many thanks,
DAvid

I receive digested emails, so I cannot conserve the "Message-ID" of the
individual reply.
I also changed the "subject" of the email, as someone complained that the
first I set was not meaningful.
I hope now it is ok.
