This is fairly old by now; you are highly advised to update to the
latest SVN version.

I don't see any obvious errors in the output you posted. There is one
big fat warning about B-frames when muxing with libavformat, but since
you aren't using B-frames that isn't a problem; there is one report of a
failed attempt to use the mpegpes decoder, but when that failed it tried
(and apparently succeeded) to use libmpeg12 instead.

What problems are you seeing?
