I see. $HOME/lib should be replaced by $HOME/apps/lib then, like:

export LD_LIBRARY_CONFIG=$HOME/apps/lib

You could add this to your .bashrc (assuming you use the bash shell). If you 
add (have added) $HOME/apps/bin to your PATH variable, you can then call 
mencoder from anywhere without the need for a wrapper script. Also, it'll 
work for future applications and libraries, provided they are installed to 
$HOME/apps.
