Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: mplayer
The karmic version of mencoder appears to be missing many encoder
codecs:
Jaunty:
$ mencoder -oac help -ovc help
MEncoder 2:1.0~rc2-0ubuntu19 (C) 2000-2007 MPlayer Team
...
Available codecs:
copy - frame copy, without re-encoding (useful for AC3)
pcm - uncompressed PCM audio
mp3lame - cbr/abr/vbr MP3 using libmp3lame
lavc - FFmpeg audio encoder (MP2, AC3, ...)
twolame - Twolame MP2 audio encoder
faac - FAAC AAC audio encoder
Available codecs:
copy - frame copy, without re-encoding. Doesn't work with filters.
frameno - special audio-only file for 3-pass encoding, see DOCS.
raw - uncompressed video. Use fourcc option to set format explicitly.
nuv - nuppel video
lavc - libavcodec codecs - best quality!
libdv - DV encoding with libdv v0.9.5
xvid - XviD encoding
x264 - H.264 encoding
Karmic:
# mencoder -oac help -ovc help

Available codecs:

Available codecs:

I would also note that mencoder seems to have no idea what its version is in
Karmic too. :P
