<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hallo, </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>firstly I have one bug for report - when I wanted
to subscribe by clicking on recieved link, there was a "page doesn't exist"
error. The link was <FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>
</FONT><A href=""><FONT face="Times New Roman"
size=3>http://mplayerhq.hu/mailman/confirm/mencoder-users/aa4b5bae9062b568d6beaa459a2b9949c14ef0fc</FONT></A><FONT
face="Times New Roman" size=3> .</FONT></FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>And now my question - is it possible to use
mencoder to recode sound files? I have some very nice language courses in real
audio. But I'd like to burn them and play in my stereo (with mp3 support). So
what I need is to convert all these files into mp3 files with similat
quality.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I downloaded mplayer source and some codecs, putted
codecs in correct directory and compiled mplayer. But it seems to me that there
are two problems (one wouldn't be enough, sure):</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>- "Video stream is mandatory!"</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>- i don't have mp3 codec for
encoding..?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>When I try mplayer 01.ra, it seems it works
(computer is my fileserver, it doesn't have any graph. card nor sound card,
but there is status message saying "playing" and three counters running), so I
think decoding real audio is not the problem, problem is with encoding it with
mp3 codec.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Any ideas, please?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thank you,</FONT></DIV>
