Thanks for your help. The AVI file was generated by mencoder, so if
melt uses the same libraries that mencoder uses, then it should be
readable? DOes that make sense? Anyway, what is 'shotcut'?
Did you mean 'shortcut'? I searched on the MLT documentation
page http://www.mltframework.org/bin/view/MLT/Documentation
for either and it didn't find anything. Thanks.
