can you give us some example command lines? i will make some patches to the DOCS and get ovc vfw in there properly!
It's quite simple. "-ovc vfw -xvfwopts codec=vp4vfw.dll"
using the wrong dll? hehe ...
Yeah, I forgot that the vp3 DLL in mplayer's codec pack is older than the one on xiph.org, and doesn't work for encoding... I could also have sworn that encoding worked with, eg. vp6.
also... maybe we should start a list of codecs that do work? like codecs.conf or vfwcodecs.txt it should include codec filename , md5sum, maybe url to file on mphq (so that the version that works can be preserved in case newer/older versions crash)
I made a quick script to try each of the ~100 I have, and these are the ones that seem to work: ViVD2.dll aslcodec_vfw.dll asusasv2.dll asusasvd.dll avimszh.dll avizlib.dll divx.dll huffyuv.dll iccvid.dll icmw_32.dll jp2avi.dll m3jp2k32.dll m3jpeg32.dll mcmjpg32.dll mpg4c32.dll tsccvid.dll vp31vfw.dll ** vp4vfw.dll wnvplay1.dll wnvwinx.dll ** Downladed from: http://downloads.xiph.org/releases/vp3/3.2.6.1/winvfw/vp31vfw.dll
