Do I need to do something else after installing SMPlayer?
It looks like mencoder does not come with mencoder.

mplayer is for playing videos. mencoder is for encoding or transcoding videos. You need to make sure that you have mecoder. I don't use windows and I usually compile maplayer and mencoder from source, so I don't know much about finding and installing the precompiled versions. google should be able to find one for you.
