so here it goes...

i have some .mkv video files and im trying to convert them into .avi using mencoder so i can watch them on my standalone dvd player...

i've been using the following command line on mencoder:

mencoder.exe input.mkv -oac mp3lame -ovc xvid -xvidencopts pass=1 -o output.avi

during the convertion i get a few "skipping frame!" messages but while watching the output.avi file on my PC i dont even notice any skipping frames...

BUT...

...as i said above, my objective was to watch it on my standalone DVD player... well... a few seconds after it starts playing the sound and subtitles keep running without any problem but the image freezes (probably because of those "skipping frame!" messages)

any suggestion?


thanks in advance ;)

It plays ok on the PC, but not on the standalone.
Sounds like disk problem.
If it's being burned to a DVD, I would make sure it's being burned on a reliable disk (like Verbatim) at a moderate speed.

oh.. when i try it on the standalone DVD player i use a usb drive... so it aint disk related...

there must be a way to avoid the "skipping frame!" when encoding on mencoder..

thanks dude ;)
