Thanks. I'll finish it soon.

No, they are decoding options... To decode still images as if they were
movie. You can encode them to movie or another set of pictures after,
but that has nothing to do with -mf.

Well, I never used it, maybe mplayer can play encoded audio without
headers, in this case you are to specify fourcc (why not codec directly
using -vc, I wonder?). It may be useful to someone...

I left "JPEG quality setting (default:75)" - this help isn't options
description, just reminder if someone forgot syntax for some options he
knows about. Everything else is in manpage/html docs...
