DV to MPEG4 with deinterlacing
Encode a raw DV file from a digital video camera to MPEG4 video with mp3 audio.
mencoder input.dv -vf pp=lb -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vbitrate=2000 -oac mp3lame -lameopts vbr=3 -o output.avi
Adjust vbitrate to your needs. vbitrate=2000 produces a quite good quality at a small filesize for videos in TV resolution.
Scaling and MPEG4 encoding
Scale a high resolution video down to a lower resolution, preserving the aspect ratio. MPEG4 encoding options as usual. This scales any video that mencoder is able to read to a 480p video (480 pixels high).
mencoder input.mov -vf scale=-3:480 -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vbitrate=3000 -oac mp3lame -lameopts vbr=3 -o output.avi
'-vf scale=-3:' calculates the with of the video using the original aspect ratio and the desired height.
