I think mencoder (a part of multimedia/mplayer) can do what you want.
It handles mpeg2video.

  "mencoder (MPlayer's Movie Encoder) is a simple movie encoder,
   designed to encode MPlayer-playable movies (see above) to other
   MPlayer-playable formats  (see  below). It encodes to MPEG-4
   (DivX/XviD), one of the libavcodec codecs and PCM/MP3/VBRMP3 audio in
   1, 2 or 3  passes. Furthermore it has stream copying abilities, a
   powerful filter system (crop, expand, flip, postprocess, rotate,
   scale, noise, RGB/YUV conversion) and more."

(mplayer manpage).
