ffmpeg changed the names of a lot of codecs internally around their version 9500 or 10,000 (haven't found the exact revision yet). Therefore, the problem which is mentioned in this bug is really that the user uses the old codec name instead of the new one. I would say this is a regression issue,

Ok, in 8.04 I use to install the packages of medibuntu ffmpeg with support for xdiv, but in the actual version their not availabe. So the only way to have support for these formates is to compile ffmeg. Why does ubuntu don't support the offical packages (or medibuntu) to these formates? --

As I said above, it looks like the problem comes from your command line. This one should work (if you installed the unstripped packages): ffmpeg -i /home/dani/prueba.mpg -vcodec libxvid -acodec libmp3lame /home/dani/prueba.avi -- problem with ffmpeg and xvid

that's correct. the ubuntu ffmpeg package does not enable xvid. The libraries aren't available in debian, and AFAIUI they are more or less obsolete. Can you perhaps explain why xvid is useful/necessary to you considering that ffmpeg has h263/h264 encoding support via x264? -- Gruesse/greetings,
