| 2674 | 19 <P><B>MEncoder</B> (<B>MPlayer</B>'s Movie Encoder) is a simple movie encoder, |
| 20 designed to encode MPlayer-playable movies | |
| 4397 | 21 (<B>AVI/DVD/VCD/VOB/MPG/MOV/VIV/FLI/RM/NUV/NET</B>) to other MPlayer-playable |
| 22 formats (see below). It can encode with various codecs, like <B>DivX4</B> (1 or | |
| 23 2 passes), libavcodec, <B>PCM</B>/<B>MP3</B>/<B>VBRMP3</B> audio. Also has | |
| 24 stream copying and video resizing abilities.</P> | |

| 44 you use for lame, the better the quality will be. You can test | |
| 45 quality by running <CODE>make test</CODE> after lame's compiling process | |
| 46 is over. The resulting number should be less than <B>30</B>. Don't | |

| 4397 | 89 <P><U><B>2-pass encoding :</B></U> the name comes from the fact that this method encodes the file <I>twice</I>. |
| 3620 | 90 The first encoding (dubbed <I>pass</I>) creates some temporary files (*.log) with a |
| 91 size of few megabytes, do not delete them yet (you can delete the AVI). In the second pass, the | |
| 92 2-pass output file is created, using the bitrate data from the temporary files. The resulting | |
| 3027 | 93 file will have much better image quality. If this is the first time you heard |
| 94 about this, you should consult some guides available on the Net.</P> | |

| 3438 | 165 |
| 166 <P>Often the need to resize movie images' size emerges. Its reasons can be many, | |
| 167 examples are decreasing output file size, encoding SVCDs to DivX. Ripped DVDs | |
| 168 are mostly rescaled, for example a 4:3 DVD should be 640x480, especially | |
| 169 when you want it to fit to 1 CD, and have good quality at the same time. | |
| 170 SVCDs have 480x480 size, and their header contains the aspect ratio the | |
| 171 player should use (Ex.: 480x480 + 4:3 = 640x480). However when encoding to | |
| 172 AVI (DivX) files, you have be aware that AVI headers don't store this | |
| 173 value. Thus, the only solution is rescaling.</P> | |
| 174 | |
| 3912 | 175 <P><B>MEncoder</B> can scale input images if they come in YV12 format (for example: |
| 3859 | 176 ffdivx, odivx drivers, or mpeg1/2). The output size is specified with the |
