I sometimes had the problem, that mplex wanted to split its output and 
asked for %d in the filename, when I wanted it to make just one file. It seems
that there are end-of-sequence marks in the m2v-file.

With the help of google I found out, that the option -M in mplex (from cvs) 
seems to be
what I am looking for:

>--ignore-seqend-markers|-M
>  Don't switch to a new output file if a  sequence end marker
>  is encountered ithe input video.

(from usage). However, I then found out, that the -M option is also present in 
older
versions of mplex, but with a different explanation:

>--split-segment|-M
>  Simply split a sequence across files rather than building run-out/run-in

and from the manpage

>-M|--split-segment
>  When splitting a long stream in files based on -S mplex does a certain
>  amount of careful "running out" to prevent a GOP or audio frame being
>  split.  If the files are simply going to be concatenated for playback
>  this "run out" is superfluous and makes it harder for the player to

So my question is: Are these options really the same? Do they produce multiple
output files if a end-of-sequence mark is found? And if so, is there any other 
way 
to prevent this behaviour?
