transcode video files to DPG format (Nintendo DS)

dpgconv's Issues

Doesn't work with the latest mencoder.

Dpgconv used to work, but since I updated to mencoder rev. 36285, it says "Transcoding video: done" directly (there is no percentage), then converts the audio (this seems to work), and finally it exits by telling that the file is empty:

It seems we found all programs :)...continuing

Improper or missing sequence end code.
File appears to be empty.

There is no .dpg in the output directory; it seems to do this with all kinds of video files (tried .avi, .mp4, .flv)
If I downgrade to mencoder r35920, it works again.
P.S. My distro is ArchLinux.

Could not open MPEG file: mpgtmp.mpg, because it never existed.

The latest versions of mencoder, mplayer and the 2.2b version of mpeg_stat return this error, running on either Debian 10 or Ubuntu 18.04.04:
