The problem you are having now is that you no longer included a bitrate
to encode at. Acidrip will automatically append 

:bitrate=<bitrate>:pass=[1,2]

to make it work.

You also neglected the -x264encopts switch before the line of options
for the x264 encoder, which is why mencoder was unable to find the
encoding options.

In your case, you no longer included the bitrate=869 which was in your
original command (that acidrip added for you). If you don't include the
pass=1/2, it will encode in one pass (bad). If you want to encode in one
pass, you can do it, but should use the option crf=<quality> to get
constant quality... I think a quality of 17-22 is fine, so I usually
just use that as it gets me pretty good much faster than two pass
encoding.

However, two-pass is the way to go for the highest quality.
