[MPlayer-users] mencoder.exe.so (mencode from sorenson v3)

[Jan Pieter Cornet <johnpc@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Just a quick "Thanks!" on getting working Sorenson V3 in MPlayer. I got
it working nicely on debian "sid", linux 2.4.19-686-smp.

I noticed one thing: While seeking forward in .mov files, sometimes the
player jumps backwards slightly, instead of forward (maybe it cannot
find a keyframe in the right direction?). (Tested on this movie:
http://www2.foxsearchlight.com/lab/shorts/farmsluts/320.mov (50Mb,
~16:00, very dry and black humour, not pornographic but contains very
explicit bizarre sexual references (well, according to my standards))

Also, there was no "mencoder.exe.so", so it couldn't encode mov files to
another format. However compiling that turned out to be fairly easy, a
patch is attached which adds the appropriate Makefile target.

I successfully used the resulting mencoder.exe.so to make ellenfeiss.avi
and the abovementioned "farmsluts" as avi.
