I want to use mencoder (from mplayer project) to convert video to mp4 to be able to watch them on my iphone.
I am using it on my Mac Book Pro and my Linux PC for a long time without any problem.
But, using the same mencoder release, same video files and scripts on my "hackintosh" (see complete description at the end), it crashing all the time…
I tried to use FFMpegX, but it is crashing too (not suprising, it using mencoder).
I tried to re-compiled mencoder, crashing too…

Any ideas why it keeps crashing on my AMD 10.5.2?
Thanks for you help,
KrisT@uF
