Hi!!
My video camera capture HD (1280x720, mp4 format) at 25p.
I want to make DVD-PAL(720x576) from these video's. To do that i try to use mencoder and ffmpeg.
With ffmpeg results are ok, with command like this:
Code:
ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -target pal-dvd -b 5500k -maxrate 8000k -aspect 16:9 output.mpg
With mencoder i try this command:
Code:
mencoder -of mpeg -mpegopts format=dvd -ofps 25 -srate 48000 -vf scale=720:576 -af lavcresample=48000 -ovc lavc -oac lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg2video:vrc_buf_size=1835:keyint=15:vrc_maxrate=8000:vbitrate=5500:aspect=16/9:acodec=ac3:abitrate=128 -idx -o output.mpg input.mp4
The result it's not continuous.

I prefer to use mencoder because it's easy to add multiple input files and is faster than ffmpeg.
Any advice how can use mencoder with better results? I think that problem it's thst video source is in progressive mode.
