Of course, you're right... :) Sorry for misleading anyone with wrong
information in my previous email. It was not intentional. As I
mentioned, I've never used the mencvcd script... I don't have a
hardware dvd player and have no need to encode to mpeg1 or mpeg2.

Sorry to hear about the a/v desync. It's annoying to try to watch
that.
I just thought I'd mention for the record that mencoder itself produces
avi files which are generally in good sync (given a good source) in my
experience.
