Are you sure you don't mean 24000/1001 or 25? Those are standard NTSC
and PAL framerates, respectively.

What do you mean by "poorly"?

That's an extremely low keyint, and is pretty much guaranteed to hurt
compressibility.

Using a newer version of mencoder shouldn't hurt...

Wow, your mencoder is really old. Using a newer version might help.

Also, you don't seem to be doing 2-pass encoding, which is likely to
help greatly.
