Mmm, you HAVE the 1.0pre7 release after all.
I don't have any idea from where the messages:

come, but they confuse encode2mpeg.
Please do the following test:

edit encode2mpeg (0.5.2) go to line 1599
and change:
mver=$(mencoder 2>/dev/null | awk '{print $2;exit}')
to:
mver=$(mencoder 2>/dev/null | awk '$1=="MEncoder"{print $2;exit}')

Now encode2mpeg should identify correctly your version of mplayer
and will not be issuing the warning about an unsupported version
(do not add </dev/null for the test).

Let me know if it works.
Thanks.
