greetings...

maybe it's just post-Superbowl-dinner brain damage, but I'm looking at the options in ffmpeg and having a complete vapor lock on how to proceed. (it doesn't help that command-line work has never been my strong suit...)

basically, I have a PicVideo MJPEG avi, 70 minutes long, 720x480, 29.97fps. I want to convert this to a 720x480, 6000K dvd-compliant mpeg-2 or .m2v file, either with or without audio (I can convert the audio separately if necessary).

if there's any ffmpeg gurus who'd lend a hand, and hook me up with a roadmap or a sample command-line script, I'd be very grateful.

thanks.
