Not sure if it matters for this particular application, but people should
know that this usage currently produces mpeg2 in an mpeg1 container,
and the resulting file is totally nonstandard. So far as I know, only
mplayer will play it.

With this in mind, I wonder why you use "-of mpeg" at all. As long as
we're generating a file most software can't work with in the first place,
why not save some keystrokes and put mpeg2 in avi?
