Hi,
I believe that povray has dropped generation of separate files
for each colour some time ago. I also several years ago started using
this coding to mpeg generation. Since I went to the .ppm format as this 
was supported by the encoder. 
I have used both mpeg2encode and mpeg_encode. Now I only use the latter.
You should be able to find as mpeg_encode-1.5b*.
