It appears that the mencoder x264 options have changed since I wrote the patch. The me=3 option has been replaced with me=umh. However, it appears that using umh over hex has a negligible gain in encoding quality anyway, so I would recommend deleting the me=3 bit in the encoding command.
In fact, you can replace the entire option line for the encoding with: subq=5:8x8dct:frameref=2:bframes=3:b_pyramid:weight_b:threads=auto for high quality encoding at reasonable speed, and with: subq=6:partitions=all:8x8dct:me=umh:frameref=5:bframes=3:b_pyramid:weight_b:threads=auto for ultra high quality encoding at slow speed. These are the new "recommended" encoding options from the mencoder homepage (http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML-single/en/MPlayer.html#menc-feat-x264-encoding-options).
