Hi everyone,

I'm new on this list and therfore not so excelent in my knowledge of mplayer / 
mencoder. 

Two days ago I have done my first try to encode a DVD into a AVI file. I used 
a howto which I found by googling : 
http://www.bunkus.org/dvdripping4linux/single/

There is a 3-pass encoding description which I fallowed:

First pass is extracting the audio out of the vobs, I used this command:

cat /honey/video_ts/*vob | mencoder -ovc frameno -o frameno.avi -oac mp3lame 
- -lameopts abr:br=128 -aid 129 -

but, as I have raed on the list a few days ago, this part is broken and not 
longer in use! Does this mean I only have to skip this pass and do only a 
2-pass encoding?? What happen to the audio? 

Ok, next step is doing the encoding, therfore I used these commands:

cat /honey/video_ts/*vob | mencoder -sws 2 -pp 6 -oac copy -o /dev/null -ovc 
lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:keyint=250:v4mv:mbd=2:vme=4:vbitrate=1800:vpass=1 
- -vop scale=640:480 -

cat /honey/video_ts/*vob | mencoder -sws 2 -pp 6 -oac copy -o honey.avi -ovc 
lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:keyint=250:v4mv:mbd=2:vme=4:vbitrate=1800:vpass=2 
- -vop scale=640:480 -

I played a bit with the encoder options and this is the best result a can get! 
Did I forgott anything?? The resulting file is about 1,3 GB - this isn't a 
matter. Playback looks fine, but I have an A-V sync prob about 2 or 3 ms! I 
think this is caused by the 3-pass encoding I've used!

Ok, this is what I have done! But with this I have only one audio stream in 
the file. The thing I want to do is having 2 audio streams like English and 
German in one file! Is this possible with mencoder? I want to have the 
possibility to change the audio in playback!

Ok, thats everything :-)
