New submission from David Tombs <cyan.s...@gmail.com>: I am trying to convert from a MOV captured with my digital camera to an ogv (libtheora/libvorbis). oggvorbis_encode_init fails with the unspecific message: "oggvorbis_encode_init: init_encoder failed", which doesn't help with tweaking the parameters at all. I would like to request more detailed logging in the case of a failure.
