Hi all. I've got a whole bunch of dvd's of tv episodes that I'm trying to use tablet-encode on, but it seems I'm having troubles when I try to pass specific mencoder options. I'm doing this mainly because I've got two dvd drives that I want to use in tandem to speed up the process, so not only do I have to point mencoder to the correct drive, but with using two-pass encoding I have to specify different log file outputs so they don't collide. Lastly I want mencoder to boost the volume so I can actually hear the video when I'm riding on a bus or plane.

Here's my command line & the error I keep getting:

If I don't specify any of the mencoder options it works fine. Any ideas? TX
