I am trying to use FFmpeg to convert a video from mp4 format to an mpeg, so that I can merge multiple videos. I have a custom build of FFmpeg where I control the configuration options:
ffmpeg -y -i VID_20150514_171122_12085.mp4 -an -f mpeg VID_20150514_184208.mp4.0.mpg

[NULL @ 0xb7520490] Requested output format 'mpeg' is not a suitable output format
VID_20150514_184208.mp4.0.mpg: Invalid argument
But I keep getting an error saying "Requested output format 'mpeg' is not a suitable output format". The same command seems to work on my Ubuntu machine with a full build of FFmpeg. What am I missing? I thought I had all the mpeg encoders/decoders enabled ... mpeg, mpegvideo, mpeg1video, mpeg2video.
