Hello all, Brand new user here, had no idea these tools even existed til a few days ago when I bought my DVD player and decided I wanted to see if I could encode some of my DivX movies to SVCD.
Good news is, I can. However, I am using Mandrake with mjpegtools-1.6.1-9mdk, and the script I use, mencvcd, takes about 24 hours to encode a 700MB DivX to VCD on my aging P3 866 with 392MB RAM. When I originally tried to compile mjpegtools from source, I was warned that without "nasm", performance would be very poor. So I installed the Mandrake nasm package, and proceeded to build. ./configure goes ok, but when I try to 'make' I get this error: /home/joehill/tmp/ccdc9rev.s: Assembler messages: /home/joehill/tmp/ccdc9rev.s:625: Error: symbol `NOT_SUPPORTED' is already defined make: *** [jdapimin.o] Error 1 I read the install instructions carefully, and I believe I have all the required software installed, I am not sure what this error means (actually, this error comes up both when I try to build mjpegtools *and* when I try to build jpeg-mmx). I would like to see if I can improve the speed with which SVCD's are encoded, if I am barking up the wrong tree, please feel free to slap me with trout.
