A few comments...

You're doing postprocessing after crop, which won't work. Instead put
pp=hb:128:80/vb/dr first in the filter chain.

About your comment: "The -mc option is reputed to improve (or perhaps
enable) audio sync correction with the detc filter." This may very
well be true, but I'm curious where you heard it.

About huffyuv: You can force mencoder to write (non-compliant) 4:2:0
huffyuv files by using the vstrict=-1 option to -lavcopts.
