That's interesting. I cannot reproduce your result. Why does your MEncoder
output mention:

when you do not have lavfopts in the command line? Anyway...

When I try to play a file generated by your command (the only difference
being the filename) I get:

MPlayer dev-SVN-r24907-4.2.1-sjlj (C) 2000-2007 MPlayer Team

Could not find matching colorspace - retrying with -vf scale...

The selected video_out device is incompatible with this codec.
Try appending the scale filter to your filter list,
e.g. -vf spp,scale instead of -vf spp.

while your output shows:
