    Hi, Nico!

Sometime (on Friday, October 17 at 14:38) I've received something...
>>>It works for me, with only one exception: when recording every seek()

    Hmm... I've understood. But I don't know what to do with this since
until MPEG file is finished header of it cannot be finalized. Anyway I
think it's not MEncoder problem. :)

    May be, if I get some free time, I'll search that document and read
it. :)  BTW, you could make a patch for that. %)

    With best wishes.
