I can't seem to get mencoder to work, I have tried installing it from source 
as well as from urpmi. It only seems to actually find the program if 
installed from urpmi as shown below. Any ideas what might cause this error?

[root at localhost MPlayer]# urpmi mencoder
Please insert the medium named "International CD (x86) (cdrom3)" on device
