hello all some DVDs (and therefore VOB files ripped from these DVDs) don't work at all with mencoder. (i'm using Mac OS X 10.2.6 on a Dual G4 533) i'm doing normal 3-pass encoding: mencoder MENCODER.VOB -ovc frameno -o frameno.avi -oac mp3lame -lameopts vbr=3 mencoder MENCODER.VOB -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vpass=1 -oac copy -o /dev/null mencoder MENCODER.VOB -endpos 10 -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vpass=2 -oac copy -o movie.avi but the second pass reports: Video stream: NaN kbit/s (-2147483648 bps) size: 0 bytes 0.000 secs 135 frames and the third pass crashes mencoder. the resulting movie is just 8KB and of course can't be played. i don't think i'm doing something wrong here. i've uploaded a sample VOB that produces these results to ftp://mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/incoming/MENCODER.VOB and a copy of this report to ftp://mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/incoming/MENCODER.TXT i've verivied this with MEncoder 0.90-CVS-030630-20:09-3.3 and MEncoder dev-CVS-030621-18:34-3.1 any chance this will be fixed? thanks, julian ********** [master:~] julian% uname -a Darwin master.local. 6.6 Darwin Kernel Version 6.6: Thu May 1 21:48:54 PDT 2003; root:xnu/xnu-344.34.obj~1/RELEASE_PPC Power Macintosh powerpc [master:~] julian% mencoder MENCODER.VOB -ovc frameno -o frameno.avi -oac mp3lame -lameopts vbr=3 Using GNU internationalization Original domain: messages Original dirname: /usr/local/share/locale Current domain: mplayer Current dirname: /usr/local/share/locale MEncoder dev-CVS-030621-18:34-3.1 (C) 2000-2003 Arpad Gereoffy (see DOCS) AltiVec found Reading /Users/julian/.mplayer/codecs.conf: 58 audio & 149 video codecs File not found: 'frameno.avi' Failed to open frameno.avi Reading config file /Users/julian/.mplayer/mencoder: No such file or directory success: format: 0 data: 0x0 - 0x19D800 MPEG-PS file format detected.
