you could try the methods described in
http://mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/mplayer-users/2002-August/019192.html
(you can of course read the thread around it ;) )
i tried both, the ogm method seemed to work better for me (just
personal experience) and seemed to work well on windows, too (which
i don't personally have here, so i don't really exactly know much).

btw: as there is no 3-pass encoding with ogg-audio, a 2-pass encoding 
feature like something "my audio uses up 100 megs, calculate bitrate
to fit video+audio into XXX megs" would be great.
of course i do not know for sure if this is only an mplayer issue, as
the ogm-tools are involved too. 
i also tried calculating it myself, but actually my calculations
always were +-10%, that's why i would find such a feature useful.
