using mencoder "problem.avi" -vfm ffmpeg -ovc raw -noskip -nosound -vf yadif,format=i420 -of rawvideo -o - | x264 --qp 18 --threads auto --thread-input --progress --fps 25 --output "test.mp4" - 720x576 I wanted to convert some dv footage to mp4(avc) (uploaded a small sample: Download (http://www.flyupload.com/?fid=917078322)), but ended up with a file where the color planes seem to be shifted, see: http://img59.imageshack.us/img59/8381/problemkb7.th.png (http://img59.imageshack.us/my.php?image=problemkb7.png)

Using ffmpeg as alternative to mencoder works fine, but there's no yadif, denoiser&co. ;)
(OS I use is WinXP and Linux, windows mencoder version is from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=205275)

So if anyone knows a way to get this working with mencoder and x264 (use a separate x264 version and not the one inside mencoder to be able to use newest x264 patches ;)) plz post. :)

Thanks :D

Ps.: Wasn't to sure where to post this since it's about encoding DV material to AVC material but the problem itself is with mencoder. :p
