[Bug 304887] [NEW] Cannot transcode to mp2v/mp4v

[Robstarusa]

Public bug reported:

After installing the latest (ibex) cvlc 0.94, I cannot capture &
transcode to mp2v or mp4v.  The error is that libavcodec cannot find the
encoder.  libavcodec is installed.  If I install libavcodec-
unstripped-51, there are weird dependency problems, but then I can
transcode to mp2v/mp4v, however if I try transcoding the output of an
hdtv card (hvr-1600), vlc segfaults.  I can give more info when I get
home.   Here is what happens when I try to install libavcodec-
unstripped-51.  I'm not sure what state this leaves the system in,
however after this, I can then transcode video from a pvr-250.   With
JUST libavcodec, the mp2/4v encoders are not found by vlc.
