  1. I dowloaded ffmpegx and went to the site to download mpeg2enc. when I went to download mpeg2enc it dowloaded it as a text file. I installed mpeg2enc as told into ffmpegx. When I load the program ffmpegx and convert a file using mpeg2enc and the terminal is launched, it starts converting the file but in the terminal it says mpeg2enc not found.When the program finishes encoding, there are no files found. it never encodes the file.
    What am I doing wrong
    Please Help

    You get the mpeg2enc file from the url listed in the installer. You then install it into you /usr/bin folder by typing the following command in the terminal:
    sudo cp (drag downloaded mencoder here) /usr/bin
    then you hit enter, followed by your password, and then enter again. You might have to then make this executable by typing the following command:
    sudo chmod 755 /usr/bin/mpeg2enc
    After that, you should be golden, pretty sure.
