Worse video quality on Linux than Windows with mencoder

[chiun]

Hi.

Does anyone have a clue why I get worse quality on Linux when I encode a transport stream to dvd compliant mpeg2 or xvid with mencoder, than I get when encoding on Windows. I use the exact same options with mencoder on both platforms. On Linux, the mpeg2 video is stuttering and with xvid it is very course (big pixels showing). I would really like to use the Linux version, because it runs much faster. Maybe because I run it on 64 bit SuSE 10.3.

I have an AMD 6000+ and a Asus M2NPV-VM motherboard.

I don't get it. Do you?

But are they the same version?
are you checking playback of both with the same software player on the same os?

if yes and yes,
then no it doesn't make sense
