Since we're using ffmpeg for decoding MPEG it made sense to use it to encode MPEG's. Look for a patch in the ImageMagick subversion trunk sometime tomorrow. Note that currently we support ffmpeg under Linux and mpeg2{decode,encode} under Windows.

Thanks for that - I missed it, being on the second page! I am updating the Mandriva package to 6.4.2-10 and will test the fix.

We just discovered a small problem with 6.4.2-10. Edit configure.ac and change .mgk to .xml or wait until tomorrow for the 6.4.3-0 release that fixes this problem.
