[transcode-users] Transcoder has been installed without error through Yast2, but export fails to initialise

Title: Transcoder has been installed without error through Yast2, but export fails to initialise

I have checked through the libraries to see that the referenced files exist, no dependencies were missing except PVM, which is optional anyway, but the error I am receiving is:

[export_xvid4.so] Encoder initialization failed
video export module error
[transcode] warning : (encoder.c) video export module error: init failed
[transcode] critical: failed to init encoder

If something can be suggested that would be great – at the moment I am having to copy down to my Powerbook to use ffmpegx which is a great tool, but I think it is not fair on the laptop!!

Linux is SuSe 10.1, and transcode was installed through Yast2.

I have tried using other encoding options, but with a similar result.

The command, and result are:

Command Line:

transcode -i "Little Nicky.m2t" -o "LN.avi" -y xvid -q 2

Result:
