When using iriverter for converting whatever into an xvid that fits my iaudio X5V, mencoder crashes into an segmentation fault.

the command generated by iriverter is:

a few rebuilds later, and still not very much, but at least it seems like some movies will convert and some will cause segmentation fault in mencoder, but i wont go futher with this.
i return here if things change, pherhaps the next version of mplayer will do better.

Happy New Year to you too!

revdep-rebuild did show media libs were out of sync and that has been my problem in the past when mplayer segfaults.

Hmm, I wonder if you have bad RAM?

Does it work with any files? Or does it never work? (could be a problem with the realplayer format) Will it encode into formats other than xvid, like ffmpeg's vanilla mpeg4? (could be a xvid problem) Does it dump halfway through encoding or immediately? (if it gets some or much of the recode done, then it's probably not a problem with broken library dependancies)

You could also try the cvs version of mplayer.

Could you try converting to xvid with out all the options you need just do a straight what ever format to xvid first then run the new xvid thru iriverter to the correct xvid spec you need ...

it seems like the "-af resample=44100" is the major problem.

because this works fine:

if resample is the problem well then i removed the resample part (since it seemed like it was the same anyway). this time it worked like a charm, oh yeah it all turned black and white though.

i used this command:

seems like it was the "-vf filmdint=io=29000:15000" that cased the grayscale this is strange, this option would be usefull.

but this movie is not important at all. hope i will get it working until i find a movie that i rally want in my X5

Thanks for mentioning this about resample. I haven't had this problem. I will make the appropriate changes to iriverter.
