FWIW this all seems a little over-complicated (as does Roger Heflin's transcode script). I find the command line required for ffmpeg to be much simpler than for mencoder. To transcode everything (useful for non-MPEG1/2 encoded files): ffmpeg -i source.avi -target pal-dvd -acodec libmp3lame output.mpg or ffmpeg -i source.avi -target pal-svcd output.mpg or ffmpeg -i source.avi -target pal-vcd output.mpg Take your pick from the above depending on the quality/bitrate of MPEG2 If your file already contains MPEG1/2 video of an appropriate resolution then you can just go for: ffmpeg -i source.mpg -target pal-svcd -vcodec copy output.mpg Obviously for NTSC-resolution video you'll have to change the pal-dvd, pal-svcd or pal-vcd to ntsc-dvd/ntsc-svcd/ntsc-vcd If you really want widescreen programs that come out of the end of this to be letterboxed so that you can leave your TV permanently in zoom mode (which I believe Roger Heflin's scripts produce), then just put your MVP into 4:3 mode rather than 16:9 mode.
