For current usage I just convert them to standard DVD:

ffmpeg -i foobar.mpg4 -target ntsc-dvd foobar.mpg # convert to mpeg2
dvdauthor -t -o foobar foobar.mpg # author the file
dvdauthor -T -o foobar

Well:
ffmpeg -i foobar.mpg4 -target ntsc-dvd foobar.mpg
is not working wery well, a lot of errors:

I highly recommend checking out tovid, it will convert to proper dvd
mpeg format and maintain aspect ratios and all that... I've used it
for a long time without any issues.

with "tovid" I got errors as well:

I think one of the package is missing codecs: mp4a avc1
but I can not figure out which one; as with "transcode" I get errors as well:

Anybody has any idea which package I need to recompile to get codecs:  mp4a 
avc1 ?
