theora dev - Aug 2007 - can not encode a raw video file with "encoder_example"

hi all,

i tried to encode a .yuv file with the encoder_example.c
but it give an error message as follows


 ./encoder_example -v 1 file_1.yuv > file_1.ogg

Input file file_1.yuv is neither a WAV nor YUV4MPEG2 file.



so the error message is understandable for anyone.


when this file is play with mplayer it shows as follow

=========================================================================Opening
video decoder: [raw] RAW Uncompressed Video
VDec: vo config request - 176 x 144 (preferred colorspace: Planar I420)
VDec: using Planar I420 as output csp (no 0)
Movie-Aspect is undefined - no prescaling applied.
VO: [xv] 176x144 => 176x144 Planar I420
Selected video codec: [rawi420] vfm: raw (RAW I420)
=========================================================================


but i want to know that weather it is possible to encode this file with the
"encoder_example".

if it is possible please help me to do this..

thank you

These are the only formats supported by encoder_example, so it is not 
possible to encode your raw yuv file.

You can either munge it yourself, or run it through mplayer to generate 
a y4m file. Try something like 'mplayer -vo yuv4mpeg file.yuv'.

Hope that helps,
