I've been trying for some time now to turn AVI files into VCD or sVCD using Debian Linux. I don't have the time to become an expert in video formats, which appears to be necessary to do it using, e.g., transcode.

I thought Christian Vogelang's Ripmake would be ideal, but it fails with the error message

make: *** [audio_sample-a0] Broken pipe

I am also not an expert on how make works, so I can't debug that.

I thought about using such software as Cinelerra or MainActor, but Cinelerra won't compile on my box, and MainActor can't load any file without segfaulting.

So any other suggestions?
