You can choose one of two things, results may vary.

1.  You can simply use the '-dumpstream' option.  That will be exactly 
the same format as the source.
2.  You can use '-ao' and '-vo' to output to another format...  The only 
useful ones are mpegpes or yuv4mpeg for -vo, and mpegpes or pcm for -ao.

The second option works great if you want to re-encode using mjpeg-tools 
to VCD or SVCD...  Otherwise, you probably want to stick with the first one.
