[Solved] GLC Encoding Issues

A friend and I were recording us playing Minecraft, the video/ingame audio via GLC, the recording went fine and glc-play views the file fine.
However, when I go to encode the .glc file into any video format something always goes wrong.
For example the first time it was to WebM via Gamecaster and the output video played back fine until I resized the window ingame, the video just displayed the same frame before the resize for the rest of the recording, with the audio playing in the background.
The closest I got to a useable video was with:
glc-play <stream file> -y 1 -o - | mencoder -demuxer y4m - -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vbitrate=3000 -audiofile audio.wav -oac mp3lame -o video.avi
where the output video only displayed the top left of the recording (the starting resolution) after the resize.
I'm not too familiar with the way glc works so is there anything I can do to lock the resolution or fix the encoded videos?

Edit: Turns out I forgot the %d on the output filename.

Just to clarify, where did you put the "%d"? I'm having a similar issue and I'm using almost the same command:

glc-play java-18418-0.glc -y 1 -o - | mencoder -demuxer y4m - -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mjpeg -o video.avi 

I've tried putting the %d in various places around "video.avi" but it yields the same, upper left-hand corner video. Thanks! :-)
