[Bug 285891] Re: mencoder crashed with SIGSEGV in avcodec_close()

[Nestor]

ANSWER
BAD USE OF THE COMMAND IN MENCODER

Binary package hint: mplayer

After upgrade to Ubuntu 8.10

ProblemType: does not find lavc
Architecture: intel pentium
DistroRelease: Ubuntu 8.10
ExecutablePath: /usr/bin/mencoder
NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia
Package: mencoder 2:1.0~rc2-0ubuntu17

This  option is WRONG if you try to add subtitles
 mencoder CD2.avi -sub CD2.srt -oac copy -ovc COPY lavc -o finalCD2.avi -subcp iso-8859-1 -subfont-text-scale 2.8
it does what you are telling mencoder to do: -oac COPY  and -ovc COPY
RESULT:  a copy

SHOULD BE:
 mencoder CD2.avi -sub CD2.srt -oac copy -ovc  lavc -o finalCD2.avi -subcp iso-8859-1 -subfont-text-scale 2.8

It does work nicely,

Sorry for the inconveniency
