Hi, I am new to this list, so I am sorry if this has been answered
already.


I have installed mplayer from source on my Debian system. It works
great! Thank you for the amazing work.

However I am wondering if the following is a bug in the command line
parsing code:


  tournesol:~$ mencoder alison.avi -ovc frameno -o frameno.avi -oac mp3lame -lameopts preset=standard

  Using GNU internationalization
  ...
  ...

  MEncoder 0.90rc2-2.95.4 (C) 2000-2002 Arpad Gereoffy (see DOCS!)

  CPU: Intel Celeron Covington/Pentium II Deschutes,Tonga/Pentium II Xeon
  (Family: 6, Stepping: 2)
  ...
  Detected AVI file format!
  AVI_NI: No Audio stream found...  ->  no sound
  AVI: No Audio stream found...  ->  no sound
  VIDEO:  [FrNo]  720x576  24bpp  25.00 fps    0.8 kbps ( 0.1 kbyte/s)
  Using pass3 control file: frameno.avi
  Reading config file /home/olivier/.mplayer/mencoder: No such file or
  directory
  Exiting... (error parsing cmdline)




If I remove "-lameopts preset=standard", everything is OK:

  tournesol:~/media/adele$ mencoder alison.avi -ovc frameno -o frameno.avi -oac mp3lame -lameopts vbr=3          
  ...
  MEncoder 0.90rc2-2.95.4 (C) 2000-2002 Arpad Gereoffy (see DOCS!)

According to the man pages, preset=standard is valid, or is it not?

Oli



Also, I don't understand the meaning of the line:

  AVI_NI: No Audio stream found...  ->  no sound

The input file does have audio, and mencoder successfully converts it to
MP3!
