Strange transcoding problem
 

I'm trying to encode an avi with mjpeg video, but I'm running into some minor troubles. When I try to run this transocde with -x ffmpeg and -y mpeg2enc,mp2enc, I get a an mpeg with nothing but static. In ored to get aournd this, I mencode it with -ovc lavc, which results in a degredation of video quality, and then transcode the mencoded file to be dvd compliant, degrading the quality further. I recompiled both ffmpeg and transcode, but that didn't help. Does anyone know a way I can encode the avis without having to go through so many steps? Thanks for any help.

Does anyone have any ideas here?

Thanks.

Does anyone know what I can do to avoid having to go through this process? Thanks for any help.
