Pencoder

About

Pencoder is a mencoder frontend written in Perl. It is based on the CPAN module UI::Dialog that is a wrapper to dialog-like programs like whiptail, dialog, xdialog, or zenity, so it can run in both text (newt, curses) or graphics mode (gtk). It is aimed to be easy and comfortable to use.

Its primary purpose is to re-encode video files for view these in PDAs, for example with the great mmplayer, but it is also a nice generic purpose mencoder frontend.
