I guess that should work.
However it should work a bit easier:
compile MPlayer/mencoder with
./configure --extra-cflags=-g3

then run it with
gdb --args mencoder <mencoder options etc.>

When it crashes you'll be at the gdb prompt, where you should
at least run "bt".
In theory there should be a longer variant of this in the
MPlayer documentation (which the message it prints when it
crashes refers you to).
