As Alan said, I've been able to do it just fine.  So has the author of
mythtranscode (who is using it - ffmpeg, not nuvexport - to make divx
rips).  The problem seems to be related to ffmpeg not properly
recognizing the raw video stream, which unfortunately is above my head. 
But for general info, I'm using:

mpeg2enc is part of the mjpegtools-1.6.1-fr5 rpm (freshrpms)
ffmpeg reports 0.4.6 (hmmm, rpm says ffmpeg-0.4.7-0.20030701.1.fr)

so I guess that looks like I'm using a freshrpms cvs rpm of ffmpeg
0.4.7.  Basically, these are just whatever shows up when I run `apt-get
upgrate` (redhat 9).
