[MPlayer-users] Mencoder quality help

[joe user]

Hello, I have just tried to use mencoder to encode a
DVD.  Here are the options I used:

mencoder -dvd-device ~/file.dvd -ovc xvid -dvd 1 -o
~/file.xvid -oac copy

It did a good job of compressing it, but the quality
of the result was not acceptable, compared to the
original dvd quality.  Can someone suggest a codec and
options to get a high-quality copy of a dvd?

Thanks!
