First thanks for your quick response.
My original commandline goes:
   mencoder -oac lavc 1.rm -oac mp3lame -o 1.mp3
or
   mencoder -v -v -v  -ac lavc 1.rm -of mpeg -o 1.mp3

The output that I have from trying something similar is:

   [shuo at quicksilver@Fri12:05:38:~/Desktop/Reflets]$ mencoder -v -v -v 
-ac lavc 1.rm -aofile 1.pcm -vo null -cache 2048 cache.txt

   aofile is not an MEncoder option
   Exiting... (error parsing cmdline)

aofile seems not to be an option for the CVS version. Then I tried these 
commands:
  
   mencoder -v -v -v -ac lavc 1.rm -ofile 1.pcm -vo null -cache 2048 
cache.txt
   mencoder -v -v -v -ac lavc 1.rm -o 1.pcm -vo null -cache 2048 cache.txt
   mencoder -v -v -v -ac lavc 1.rm -o 1.pcm -cache 2048 cache.txt

   The first two complains about ofile and vo not being an MEncoder option.
   The last one returns the same output like my original commandline 
(Video steam mandatory etc..)

Thanks you!
