I couldn't wait untill lame + libraties were installed,to try it,
So I put up a terminal and proceeded with just this command.
It all looks very impressive. However I haven't a clue where
the output is going, I don't even know what the name of the file is,
in order to look for it. Isn't there some way I could pipe this to my
chosen directory /mnt/ext2-vol6/downloads2/divx. How about a | (pipe)
or a > redirect , or something.

P.S.
15.26 BST
I found a file called test.avi which is 5 minutes long and has 77.5Mb
of data in it and plays beautifully in mplayer in divx mode.
All I want to do now is redirect it to my spare partition and apply
some compression so that a full length feature film comes in around
800Mb. Is this possible ?
