mplayer can input DV but I don't see any way to get mplayer
to output DV?

mencoder looks more promising:

mencoder -oac copy -vf scale=720:480 -vc mpeg12 -ovc libdv /tmp/test.mpeg2 /tmp/test_output.dv

I don't know what this frameno.avi file is supposed to be?

I'm not sure if "-oac copy" is the right thing to specify?

Once again I get a seg fault.  :-(
