Thanks BobNo - it is definitely installed - I've used it on the cli plenty of times. I am interested in finding out how I am to call it from within a bash script, because simply putting mencoder <options> <file> in the bash script isn't working.
I'm not a programmer, so I can guarantee that this is a case of PEBCAK, but I am not clear on how to resolve it.
