you may try this patch, but it's still under heavy development; I've 
been successfully using it for some time noe,
so it should work well. Use it this way:

./mencoder -of mpeg -mpegopts format=dvd -ovc ... -oac ... -o file.mpg 
<original file>

You can also use some additional parameters (in -mpegopts) such as 
init_apts, init_vpts and init_adelay
(only negative at the moment) to fix asynchrony.

The final file can be passed to dvdauthor.

Please let me know if it works for you.
