I've encoded a movie with mencoder (sherpya's 20050525 build) with this options:

mencoder.exe -dvd-device q: dvd://2 -vf crop=704:576:10:0 -oac copy -ovc x264 -x264encopts qp_constant=24:cabac:deblock:subq=5:bframes=5:b_pyramid:weight_b -o video1.avi

The encoded movie plays fine on mplayer, but not on MPC with latest ffdshow build (20050510 by CD). The codec seems being recognized, on the info window current frame and decoder FPS are running, but bitrate is stuck at 0. :confused:

Maybe some codec (mplayer/mencoder or ffdshow) made an "incompatible stream". :confused:

Stranger and stranger.... I've removed b_pyramid. Now the movie starts and plays audio (previously it didn't even start playing) but the screen remains black. No problem with mplayer as usual.
Maybe something terribly obvious escapes me...

I've found that the problem arise only when encoding directly from dvd. Maybe something mencoder related...
