Thanks Paulo. Definitely not advocating holding back on ffmpeg. Just figured I'd post on the issue in case something had been missed or overlooked. I'll continue to use nuvexport with mencoder or look more closely at the script you posted the last time this happened until nuvexport gets updated and/or some update to ffmpeg magically fixes things again.
