Yes, ermh, no, no qtto4m.

$ otool -L `which qttoy4m`
/usr/local/bin/qttoy4m:

As you can see above, I was able to compile libquicktime without
Fink. You can mail me off-list if it doesn't work for you, maybe
I can be of assistance.

I roughly do the following for dvd:

$ qttoy4m in.mov | yuvdenoise | mpeg2enc <options> -o out.m2v

Sorry for being OT, but I don't know how to do this with
mencoder.
