You see, you say: "$sudo apt-get install mencoder" APT is used on Debian based distributions. Distros like Red Hat, SuSE, Gentoo, Slackware, etc won't be able to use this command. Maybe you should just advise the package to be installed and link to its source for the unlucky folks that don't have the option of installing the package automatically?
