xvid or x264 are not available in my mencoder. I also tried it with 
raw, nuv and copy. The problem seems to affect all ovcs but copy.
I stripped my normal -lavcopts and -vf flags, as well as any audio, 
since that does not change the  result.
When I use one of my avi files as input, no problem is visible. My 
first suspicion was that the mpeg decoder is the cause, but mplayer 
plays the file without any problems.
