Hi,

Tried to follow the steps here to convert .nuv to .avi for playback on Win2k
machines.  Downloaded latest mplayer release (non CVS), did patch for
mythtv, compiled and installed.  Also compiled and installed latest ffmpeg.
Then when I do this:

$ mencoder -ovc divx4 -oac copy test.nuv -o test.avi

I get this result:

So, how do I install the 'divx4' filter?  Searched around quite a bit and
read docs but missed it.  Can someone please enlighten?

Also, is that a problem about the "File not found: 'frameno.avi' ?

Thanks!
JC
