Sorry I have been delayed by othjer stuff. I apologise for being slow.
You asked what CPU i was using. This is a thinkpad x61:
cpu0: Genuine Intel(R) CPU L2400 @ 1.66GHz ("GenuineIntel" 686-class) 1.67 GHz
cpu0:
FPU,V86,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,APIC,SEP,MTRR,PGE,MCA,CMOV,CFLUSH,DS,ACPI,MMX,FXSR,SSE,SSE2,SS,HTT,TM,SBF,SSE3,MWAIT,VMX,EST,TM2,xTPR,PDCM
cpu0 at mainbus0: apid 0 (boot processor)
cpu0: apic clock running at 166MHz
The command line i used was:
mencoder -ovc x264 -nosound somefile.avi -o file.mp4
I tried this and a zero size file was created.
I tried again on a .mov and it appeared to be working. I was able to
play file.mp4 (whilst it was still being encoded) with mplayer up
until X crashed (unrelated, bitten by a drm bug).
I also noticed many errors like this:

Compiler did not align stack variables. Libavcodec has been miscompiled
and may be very slow or crash. This is not a bug in libavcodec,
but in the compiler. You may try recompiling using gcc >= 4.2.
Do not report crashes to FFmpeg developers.

Sorry I can not be more useful. I will try the original file again
once X is sorted.
