What does your command file you pass to mpeg_encode look like? Are you
creating a file with one frame or are you putting the same frame in lots
to let it run for a while just showing the same thing.

I have used the following for my web cam stuff.

PATTERN IB
OUTPUT foo.mpg
INPUT_DIR
INPUT

.. LIST OF IMAGES ...

END_INPUT
BASE_FILE_FORMAT JPG
GOP_SIZE 10
SLICES_PER_FRAME 1
PIXEL HALF
RANGE 2
INPUT_CONVERT *
PSEARCH_ALG LOGARITHMIC
BSEARCH_ALG CROSS2
IQSCALE 5
PQSCALE 5
BQSCALE 5
REFERENCE_FRAME DECODED
FORCE_ENCODE_LAST_FRAME
END_PARAM_FILE
