ffmpeg producing "lame: output buffer too small" error

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The version of ffmpeg seems to have trouble with lame 3.98.2. Running the
following command :

/usr/local/bin/ffmpeg -i movie.mov -acodec libmp3lame -ab 48k -ac 1 -ar
44100 -f flv -deinterlace -nr 500 -croptop 4 -cropbottom 4 -cropleft 8
-cropright 8  -aspect 4:3 -r 25 -b 270k -me_range 25 -i_qfactor 0.71 -g 500
high.flv

Will produce an error "lame: output buffer too small". Reverting back to
the previous version 3.97 seemed to fix things on my Ubuntu 8.0.4 system. 

Not sure if this will cause problems in Xuggler.

Relatively easy thing for me to test.  I'll add it to the queue.  Thanks Nate.

I'm getting feedback from the FFMPEG developers that this will work with 3.98 
(just
not 3.98.2 which we use right now), so I'm going to try that first.

replace lame3.98.2 in r140 and r141

and on our test file we no longer get the "lame: output buffer too small" error

I can confirm that above said is all true. I had to downgrade to 3.98 and it 
works 
good.
