I have a stream source: mms://217.218.67.243/presstv

I want to convert this wmv stream to h264 or anyother format. I used the following command:

cvlc -vvv "mms://217.218.67.243/presstv" --sout '#transcode{vcodec=h264,acodec=mpga,vb=800,ab=128}:standard{access=http,mux=ogg,dst=MyIP:MyPort}'

the problem is that I can not get video stream, I only hear the audio. here is where the error occurs:

[0xca7340] stream_out_transcode stream out error: cannot find video decoder
[0xca7340] stream_out_transcode stream out error: cannot create video chain
[0x11a97a0] main decoder error: cannot create packetizer output (WMV3)

I compiled and installed vlc from source using the following configuration:

'--enable-static' '--build=x86_64-linux-gnu' '--config-cache' '--disable-maintainer-mode' '--disable-silent-rules' '--disable-update-check' '--enable-fast-install' '--prefix=/usr' '--docdir=/usr/share/doc/vlc-nox' '--sysconfdir=/etc' '--with-binary-version=2~oneiric1' '--enable-a52' '--enable-aa' '--enable-bonjour' '--enable-caca' '--enable-dca' '--enable-dirac' '--enable-dvb' '--enable-dvbpsi' '--enable-dvdnav' '--enable-faad' '--enable-flac' '--enable-freetype' '--enable-fribidi' '--enable-gnutls' '--enable-jack' '--enable-kate' '--enable-libass' '--enable-libmpeg2' '--enable-libproxy' '--enable-libxml2' '--enable-lirc' '--enable-live555' '--enable-mad' '--enable-mkv' '--enable-mod' '--enable-mozilla' '--enable-mpc' '--enable-mtp' '--enable-mux_ogg' '--enable-ncurses' '--enable-notify' '--enable-ogg' '--enable-pulse' '--enable-realrtsp' '--enable-merge-ffmpeg' '--enable-libmpeg2' '--enable-vorbis'  '--enable-wma-fixed' '--enable-schroedinger' '--enable-sdl' '--enable-shout' '--enable-speex' '--enable-svg' '--enable-taglib' '--enable-theora' '--enable-twolame' '--enable-upnp' '--enable-vorbis' '--enable-x264' '--enable-zvbi' '--with-kde-solid=/usr/share/kde4/apps/solid/actions/' '--with-mozilla-pkg=mozilla-plugin' '--enable-ggi' '--disable-dxva2' '--disable-gnomevfs' '--disable-goom' '--disable-osso_screensaver' '--disable-portaudio' '--disable-projectm' '--disable-sqlite' '--disable-telx' '--enable-alsa' '--enable-atmo' '--enable-libva' '--enable-pvr' '--enable-udev' '--enable-v4l2' '--enable-run-as-root' '--enable-lua=no' '--enable-libproxy=no' '--disable-glx' '--enable-notify=no' '--disable-mozilla' '--disable-swscale' '--disable-qt4' '--disable-skins2' '--enable-svgalib' 'build_alias=x86_64-linux-gnu' 'CFLAGS=-g -O2' 'LDFLAGS=-Wl,--as-needed' 'CPPFLAGS=' 'CXXFLAGS=-g -O2'

Can anyone help me to figure out how to fix the problem?
