Here is an typical example of what I do mostly. The source is a PAL-DVD, the 
goal is to speed it down to 24fps:

mencoder -mc 0 -noskip -noodml -forceidx -ovc x264 -speed 24000/25000 -ofps 24 
-vf hqdn3d,harddup -x264encopts 
subq=1:frameref=1:me=hex:b_adapt:threads=auto:8x8dct:crf=12 -channels 2 -srate 
48000 -oac lavc -fafmttag 0x200 -af lavcresample=48000,scaletempo -lavcopts 
acodec=ac3:abitrate=448 -alang en -slang en -vobsubout OUTPUT -aspect 1.7777 
dvd://1 -dvd-device /w_LD2/ProjectX/DVD_FOLDER -of lavf -lavfopts 
format=matroska -o OUTPUT.mkv


I have no problems so far with remuxing the output with mkvmerge.

Kind regards
