Jason,

According to the manual page for r.out.mpeg:
---------------------
NOTES
     This program requires the program mpeg_encode :

                     MPEG-1 Video Software Encoder
                     (Version 1.3; March 14, 1994)

     Lawrence A. Rowe, Kevin Gong, Ketan Patel, and Dan Wallach
     Computer Science Division-EECS, Univ. of Calif. at Berkeley
     Available by anonymous ftp from: s2k-ftp.CS.Berkeley.EDU

     Use of the -c flag also requires the program r.out.ppm with
     the stdout option, which is available by anonymous ftp from:
     moon.cecer.army.mil.
---------------------

I found mpeg_encode at: http://bmrc.berkeley.edu/projects/mpeg/

I didn't see a Linux binary, but there is a link to source.  The
current version is 1.5, but I think it will still work the same.
