Hi,
This looks like interlaced video. I think 3 pass encoding does not work with these. If that's the problem you are facing, just rm frameno.avi and do -oac mp3lame during all passes and it should be ok.
although your idea to use 2-pass encoding instead of 3-pass seems to
ok
work, the video is not interlaced! (transcode can detect that)
the better word is 'field-coded', not nececssary interlaced, although thsi coding method has no much sence for progressive (non-interlaced) video. anyway i doubt that any app (be it transcode or other) can reliable detect interlacing, sometimes even teh human eye+mind combination fails...
any idea how i can draw the developers attention to that problem? the
if you mean mplayer developers, they do read this list. this is why we really hate beginner questions and incomplete bugreports here.
sample .VOB and problem description are still in the incoming dir on the ftp server...?
probably. but it's a known limitation, and not possible to fix in mencoder, without major hacks or architecture changes. i mean this isn't a bug. A'rpi / Astral & ESP-team -- Developer of MPlayer G2, the Movie Framework for all - http://www.MPlayerHQ.hu
