The docs are wrong a lot... It's limited and undocumented, but it works. Perhaps I'll send a patch... I'm probably one of only 2-3 people using -ovc vfw.
can you give us some example command lines? i will make some patches to the DOCS and get ovc vfw in there properly!
See my "success thread" from about 6 months ago when encoding with -ovc vfw: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.video.mplayer.user/38781/focus=38781
Actually, believe it or not, you've just solved my problem. I was completely mistaken about which codecs were actually working.
using the wrong dll? hehe ... 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) -compn
