[MEncoder-users] audiofile not working in r29675

[Thrash Dude]

Using mencoder file.avi -audiofile audio.mp3 -oac copy -ovc copy -o 
newmovie.avi results in this output -

Audio demuxer: unknown format 19749392.em:

$ file audio.mp3
MPEG ADTS, layer III, v1,  56 kbps, 48 kHz, JntStereo

$ mpginfo audio.mp3

mpg123, and madplay both decode/play the file as expected.

Perhaps an encoder or VBR header issue? Re-encoded mp3 file with lame 
(cbr/abr/vbr), blade-enc (cbr) helix-mp3-enc (cbr/vbr), ffmpeg, all 
result in the same problem.

Using -oac mp3lame -lameopts $blah works as expected. 

Reverting back to an earlier version of mplayer (r29543) does not have 
the -audiofile issue, but does give issues decoding H.264 streams, ( Too 
many audio packets in the buffer) that seems fixed with r29675.

I've searched the mailing lists, did not find anyone else experiencing 
the same problems. Has something changed I missed?
