Ah, right. I need to wait longer. OK, so now after waiting longer, I
get an error:
nice: mplex: command not found
In looking at the export/SVCD.pm script, a variable $Prog{'mplexer'}
is set in the new() method However, in the export() method, on line
134, mplex is hardwired in, which is a problem for me because I have
only tmplex, and anyway it seems like a mistake in the code. Changing
"mplex" to "$Prog{'mplexer'} is not completely easy because mplex and
tcmplex apparently take different kinds of command-line arguments.
As an experiment, I changed line 134 to:
$comand = "nice -n $Args{'nice'} tcmplex -m s -i
$safe_outfile.m2v -p $safe_outfile.mpa -o $safe_outfile.mpg";
Unfortunately, this didn't work, either. I end up with:

At this point, given my very limited perl hacking ability, I am pretty stuck.
Any ideas? I guess I could just go and get mplex, but it seems better
overall to fix the script.
