To be honest, I have no idea if mplayer is really required, I found instructions using mplayer, and they worked. so I stopped worrying about it. If you know of a program to mux vorbis and theora, then by all means, that's the better thing to use.I know exactly why Richard wrote the instructions has he did, he's following the example instructions that come with the libtheora package documentation.. but there has to be a way to do all this inside the existing gstreamer framework. For example the theoradec element in gstreamer should be able to take the place of the mplayer step. I just don't know how to use gstreamer pipelines well enough to write up sample instructions.
