[MEncoder-users] Sony DSC-M1 files

[Rick Richardson]

I have videos produced by the Sony DSC-M1 video camera.  They are
mpeg-4, as shown below.  mplayer works OK on these files.  But
when I play them on a Philips DVP642 player only the video plays.

I would like to re-encode them so that they use something different
for the audio.

Can somebody help???  I have a stroke, but I follow directions OK.
