Hello!
I have a problem to convert a video.
I need to use it in a DVD.
I create an animation with GIMP and exported as .fli file and after with mencoder as a mpeg file but it was no right for dvdauthor. Now I tried to convert it with transcode (that has a DVD option -F 8) but it doesn't find the plug-in.
This is the output:

This is the transcode's FLAGS:

What can I do?
Or what can I do to export from GIMP in the format?
Thanks,

I'm not sure about that specific library problem you're having but I may have a 
solution for you.  I've noticed that dvdauthor is quite picky about the format 
of the mpeg files that you give it.  In my case, I used ffmpeg to convert an 
avi to mpg but then dvdauthor did not like it.  I found a workaround though.  I 
used tccat and tcextract to demux the mpg into separate audio/video files and 
then I remuxed them with mplex.

Here is the relevant section from my script:

set -x -e
ffmpeg -i "${INPUT_AVI_FILE}" -vcodec mpeg2video -b 1500 -r ntsc -s 352x240 -aspect 4:3 
-acodec mp2 -ar 48000 -ac 1 "${TEMP_VOB_FILE}"
tccat -i "${TEMP_VOB_FILE}" | tcextract -x mpeg2 -t vob -a video_track > 
"${TEMP_M2V_FILE}"
tccat -i "${TEMP_VOB_FILE}" | tcextract -x mp2 -t vob -a audio_track > 
"${TEMP_MPA_FILE}"
rm -f "${TEMP_VOB_FILE}"
mplex -f 8 -o "${OUTPUT_MPG_FILE}" "${TEMP_M2V_FILE}" "${TEM   ffmpeg -i 
"${INPUT_AVI_FILE}" -vcodec mpeg2video -b 1500 -r ntsc -s 352x240 -aspect 4:3 -acodec mp2 -ar 48000 -ac 1 
"${TEMP_VOB_FILE}"
tccat -i "${TEMP_VOB_FILE}" | tcextract -x mpeg2 -t vob -a video_track > 
"${TEMP_M2V_FILE}"
tccat -i "${TEMP_VOB_FILE}" | tcextract -x mp2 -t vob -a audio_track > 
"${TEMP_MPA_FILE}"
rm "${TEMP_VOB_FILE}"
mplex -f 8 -o "${OUTPUT_MPG_FILE}" "${TEMP_M2V_FILE}" "${TEMP_MPA_FILE}"

It's not really elegant but it worked.  Note that I used mp2 because I ran into 
some troubles with some avi files and the ac3 encoder.  However, ac3 worked 
fine with most files.
