I've actually had bad experiences with mencoder. Apart from 1200 options in 
one manpage, converting from one format to another ends premature (missing 
the last few seconds).
While I loath transcode for what it's meant to do (it will always segfault on 
exit during a typical transcoding run), the avimerge/avisplit tools actually 
work well and are easy to use.
There are similar tools for Ogg media in multimedia/ogmtools.

Problem with today's modular software: they start with the modules
    and never get to the software part.
