This is a pretty busy morning at work, so I can't look at it much, but the
basic problem here is mkmovie's inability to get a framecount. Since it
doesn't know what the last frame is, the include list is wrong.
It doesn't look like an mpeg file, but let me be sure - are you using a
hardware encoder card? If so, you'll need a mkmovie patch that has yet to
be included in the distribution.
Run "mplayer -identify" on the file. Post or offline me the output and I'll
try to help.
