hello all i am having problems converting a file to divx. i did this just last night perfectly but fail to do this today. i have not clue what command i actually used and cannot trace it back in terminal. does anyone know how to convert file to divx? i use this currently: mencoder ali9.avi -ovc xvid -oac mp3lame -xvidencopts bitrate=-700000 -o aliconverterdivx.divx
but it doesn;t work:
video: XVID MPEG-4
audio: MPEG-1 layer 3
whereas before i got:
DivX MPEG-4 Version 5
MPEG-1 layer 2
which works out perfectly.. does anyone know how to get this file while using mencoder to convert?
