[MEncoder-users] Encoding with the Video For Windows codec family

[Tobias Brockamp]

Hi,

i'm trying to encode videos with vp6 with the binary video codecs,  
following the instructions here:

http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en/menc-feat-video-for-windows.html

It says:

14.6.2. Using vfw2menc to create a codec settings file.

To encode with the Video for Windows codecs, you will need to set  
bitrate and other options. This is known to work on x86 on both *NIX  
and Windows.

First you must build the vfw2menc program. It is located in the TOOLS  
subdirectory of the MPlayer source tree. To build on Linux, this can  
be done using Wine:


I downloaded the newest MPlayer-1.0rc1.tar.bz2 archive but there is  
no "vfw2menc.c" file in the "TOOLS" directory...

Any suggestions?


Kind regards,

Tobias Brockamp
