2674 | 10 <P><B>MEncoder</B> (<B>MPlayer</B>'s Movie Encoder) is a simple movie encoder, |
11 designed to encode MPlayer-playable movies | |
4397 | 12 (<B>AVI/DVD/VCD/VOB/MPG/MOV/VIV/FLI/RM/NUV/NET</B>) to other MPlayer-playable |
13 formats (see below). It can encode with various codecs, like <B>DivX4</B> (1 or | |
14 2 passes), libavcodec, <B>PCM</B>/<B>MP3</B>/<B>VBRMP3</B> audio. Also has | |
15 stream copying and video resizing abilities.</P> | |

3027 | 22 how to install <I>libdvdread</I> for <B>DVD</B> support, etc.</LI> |
3721 | 23 <LI><B>OPTIONAL</B> - download the newest <B>DivX4linux</B> libs |
3027 | 24 from <A HREF="http://avifile.sourceforge.net/download.htm">avifile.sourceforge.net</A>, |
4177 | 25 and have them PROPERLY installed. You need them if you want DivX4 |
26 (1/2 pass) encoding.</LI> | |
3721 | 27 <LI><B>OPTIONAL</B> - for libavcodec support, install libavcodec as |
28 described in the <A HREF="codecs.html#2.2.1.2">libavcodec section</A>.</LI> | |

31 work properly !</B><BR> | |
32 This | |
3027 | 33 is needed for CBR/VBR MP3 audio encoding ability. Note that a single |
34 <CODE>lame</CODE> binary isn't sufficient. BTW: the less optimization | |
35 you use for lame, the better the quality will be. You can test | |
36 quality by running <CODE>make test</CODE> after lame's compiling process | |
37 is over. The resulting number should be less than <B>30</B>. Don't | |
38 panic if it's <B>400</B> or so, you shouldn't heard any audible | |
39 quality decrease. Oh, and if your compiler doesn't even run <CODE>make test</CODE> ... | |

4397 | 80 <P><U><B>2-pass encoding :</B></U> the name comes from the fact that this method encodes the file <I>twice</I>. |
3620 | 81 The first encoding (dubbed <I>pass</I>) creates some temporary files (*.log) with a |
82 size of few megabytes, do not delete them yet (you can delete the AVI). In the second pass, the | |
83 2-pass output file is created, using the bitrate data from the temporary files. The resulting | |
3027 | 84 file will have much better image quality. If this is the first time you heard |
85 about this, you should consult some guides available on the Net.</P> | |

3438 | 156 |
157 <P>Often the need to resize movie images' size emerges. Its reasons can be many, | |
158 examples are decreasing output file size, encoding SVCDs to DivX. Ripped DVDs | |
159 are mostly rescaled, for example a 4:3 DVD should be 640x480, especially | |
160 when you want it to fit to 1 CD, and have good quality at the same time. | |
161 SVCDs have 480x480 size, and their header contains the aspect ratio the | |
162 player should use (Ex.: 480x480 + 4:3 = 640x480). However when encoding to | |
163 AVI (DivX) files, you have be aware that AVI headers don't store this | |
164 value. Thus, the only solution is rescaling.</P> | |
165 | |
3912 | 166 <P><B>MEncoder</B> can scale input images if they come in YV12 format (for example: |
3859 | 167 ffdivx, odivx drivers, or mpeg1/2). The output size is specified with the |

236 | |
237 <P><B><I>Explanation of the process</I></B></P> | |
238 | |
239 <P><B>MEncoder</B> <I>decodes</I> the input image(s) with an available MJPEG | |
240 video codec (when decoding PNGs, it will use the internal PNG decoder). By | |
241 default it uses <CODE>ffmjpeg</CODE>, so you have to compile with libavcodec | |
242 support (which is recommended anyways). Its disadvantage is that it can't | |
243 handle some JPEG types (green image will be encoded for these). Use some | |
244 external utility to convert those images into edible format.<BR> You can | |
245 freely choose any other MJPEG decoder, like <CODE>mcmjpg32.dll</CODE> | |
246 (MainConcept Motion JPEG) if installed, and after checking | |
247 <CODE>codecs.conf</CODE> and checking the <CODE>videocodec</CODE> line which | |
248 refers to this file, you'll learn you have to use the <CODE>-vc mjpeg</CODE> | |
249 option for it. | |
250 </P> | |
251 | |
252 <P><B>MEncoder</B> then feeds the decoded image to the chosen video compressor | |
253 (DivX4, Xvid, ffmpeg msmpeg4, etc...). Watch for the PNG decoder, as | |
254 currently it can output only to RGB formats, thus can't be used with codecs | |
255 that require YUV as input, like DivX4 or ffmpeg's msmpeg4.</P> | |
