[mandrake 2006 with kernal 2.6.12-12mdk]

I'm having trouble getting Kino 0.7.6 to export to mpeg so that I can make a simple dvd as outlined in the documentation. When I run it I can get the xml file, but there isn't an mpeg [using the format setting 8-DVD].

I've checked and made sure all the individual supporting software as listed on the export dialog is installed. When I run Kino without cleanup I do get an mp2 file. I tried making a dvd from an avi file I exported from Kino and I think I is a problem with mplex, which gave back "illegal instruction" when I tried running it alone using this command line:

mplex -f 0 -o test.mpg test.m2v test.ac3

mplex only works on mpeg-based files, so of course it's going to fail if you try it with an .avi.

I've never used kino, so I can't tell you what's wrong, but if worse comes to worse, you can export to avi and then convert it to mpg with transcode or mencoder.

If you can give me some more details on exactly what you're trying to do, maybe I can help you work something out.

What is your mjpegtools version?
Please verify mpeg2enc is in your path by running 'which mpeg2enc' and verifying it returns a location.
