bitstream codec version information not passed on with mencoder?
this was a user in #mplayer who had this problem: I've transcoded a show from a NTSC DVD to a 512x384 xvid file (max_bframes=1:nogmc:noqpel), but I can't play it back on my standalone DVD player. opening the video with avidemux2 and then saving it again (copy/copy) makes the files playable on that player. a friend tells me it's because of the lack of tags on the original video, which are present in the file output by avidemux2: "inside data / metadata there should be [USER] XviD0039 or XviD0038" Thomson DTH8045 it's a DVD-Recorder <skamp-> I'm using mplayer CVS from 2005/08/13 and xvid 1.1.0 beta 2 for encoding <skamp-> avidemux2 v. 2.0.42 (http://avidemux.berlios.de/) http://xmm.sourceforge.net/DivX5-6_Xvid_Bitstream_version.php lists the bitstream codec version, does any of this get into mencoder? can it?
