I may be incorrect, and please let me know if I am, but if I read correctly, you don't have ffmpeg installed. And possibly mplayer if I read in there correctly. I would install those first. Let's see, you're on a Debian based system... so
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get install ffmpeg mplayer
should do the trick.
If it says it can't find either one, do
then
If it can't find the correct package, then you may need to enable your multiverse repo. I haven't used Linux Mint since it was number 11, so I don't remember how I enabled the multiverse.

Thank you so much. No it did not work from the terminal commands, but I was able to find "ffmpeg" in the software center.
There was a difference when I tried right after of a new error "the Media cannot be played" but I found all I had to download "mencoder"
I also then had to install "mencoder" through the software center.
Works great now!keyint=5:vqscale=1:vqmin=2
