Windows, you need:

mplayer & mencoder
Perl

You unpack the tablet-encode tarball and the basic usage is:

Code:

tablet-encode input.avi output.avi

To get a list of presets and help:

Code:

tablet-encode -p list
tablet-encode -h

Is the code relying upon a dvd in the drive? How would I specifiy a specific file and where would that line of code be run from?

Command Prompt. Yes, instead of an input file on the above, you can use dvd: to mean "the DVD in the drive". It also features episode extraction for multiple title DVDs.

However, on Windows if you don't like the command line, you may be better off with Handbrake, Nokia's Internet Tablet Video Converter or Media Converter.
