Ok, anyway there is only one mpeg2 encoder available under linux, and that is 
mpeg2enc from the mjpegtools package (mjpeg.sourceforge.net). You can feed it 
with the -vo yuv4mpeg setting. This will mean re-encoding, though, so it can 
take a while. I know of some shareware windoze tools that can extract a good 
clean mpeg2 from dvds without re-encoding.
