The VideoLAN Forums

Hello,

I have just installed the latest version of VLC player (1.0.0 Goldeneye) and I have observed the problem with converting to MPEG-1 format.

There are messages from VLC player:

mux_ps info: Open
avcodec error: cannot open encoder
stream_out_transcode error: cannot find video encoder (module:any fourcc:mp1v)
stream_out_transcode error: cannot create video chain
main error: cannot create packetizer output (UYVY)

I use following command line syntax (but the same problem appears when I use normal GUI in exe version):

:sout=#transcode{vcodec=mp1v,vb=2030,scale=1,audio-sync,acodec=mpga,ab=192,channels=2,samplerate=48000}:duplicate{dst=display,dst=std{access=file,mux=mpeg1,dst="C:\pokus.mpg"}}

I used the same transcode syntax in version 0.8.6c and everything worked OK.
The error message says about missing "mp1v" encoder.
There is a question, this encoder is not further supported, or it was renamed?
