I just realized that I should be using 24000/1001 in my examples instead
of 23.976. For that matter, 23.976 is used througout the mencoder
documentation.

If 24000/1001 is indeed correct, then all the docs should be updated.
Instead of just 'sed -i s:23.976:24000/1001:g mencoder.xml' it would
probably be nice to explain where all the weird numbers come from,
either in our own words or by linking to an external page.

I'll do the work, except that I really don't understand it myself and I
couldn't dig anything up on google. Can somebody explain it to me or
give me a URL?

Thanks,
Corey
