[MPlayer-users] Decoding to standard output

[Christopher Armstrong]

Does mplayer support decoding to standard output (or mencoder support
encoding to standard output) so that I can receive the result in a pipe
eg.

mplayer <with options> | ffmpeg -i - -vcodec mpeg4 test.avi

I want to use mplayer to decode a video with its filters and encode the
result in ffmpeg (where I can control some of the encoding options a bit
more.
