NAME

       gmencoder - GNOME 2 front-end for MPlayer/mencoder


DESCRIPTION

       gmencoder is a program that let you easily encode audio/video streams
       using MPlayer/mencoder. It supports much of the output codecs as well
       as postprocessing, cropping, scale, subtitles ripping, 1 to 3 passes
       for encoding and a lot of more options are planned.


CONFIGURATION

       It is important that MPlayer has a good configuration. You have to have
       a configuration file that allow mplayer to run without parameters but
       the data source.

       DO NOT PUT the line "gui=yes" in your MPlayer's configuration file.
       gmencoder does not work if MPlayer starts up with gui by default.

       There are two combos (scale algorithms and post-processing options)
       that are filled from a configuration file. If this configuration file
       is not in the correct directory, combos will be empty. The file is
       gmencoder_opts and has to be put in /etc/gmencoder_opts or in
       $HOME/.gemencoder_opts.


USAGE

       Because it is a GUI program, it is very easy to use. The only thing
       that you must know is : you have to analyze the source before to be
       able to fill the scale, cropping, subtitle or post-processing options.
       Before being pressed, the Analyze File and Analyze DVD buttons are not
       mouse-sensitive.
