MEncoder calls libx264's parameter parsing code, so all parameters are always supported and the syntax is basically the same as in x264. Only x264 features that are not supported are the GTK+ GUI and Matroska and MP4 output since that part is handled by MEncoder. However, MP4 output should work with libavformat's muxer (-of lavf -lavfopts format=mp4).
