look for the lame source on the internet. Compile and install it. Enable
building the lame libraries. Running configure with mplayer should find your
mp3 libraries after this.

Here's the last few lines of the building process when it fails:
> /libvorbisidec.a  -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lfreetype
> /usr/bin/ld: can't locate file for: -lx264


You need to download the x264  sources  and compile and install them.
./configure --enable-pthread  Use pthread if you have a dual cpu.
Instructions for downloading the source code should be found on mplayerhq.hu
Then you can mencode  with more than one thread with the x264 encoder.

Cutting edge should be fine. Should work , if you fix the above problems.

Can anybody point me in the right direction in getting this thing to

I suppose.
