-vf pp=lb -oac mp3lame -lameopts fast:preset=standard -o example.avi
I use mencoder RPM

Sure! U do the coding at 1000kb/s

Hi Debian users

I posted the same topic on Mediawiki admins mailinglist. A Mediawiki
developer[0] told that the Debian package is unsupported third-party and

It is usual for upstream developers not to support the debian packages.
