Comment 2 for bug 486963

Luciole use mencoder for conversion to DV format.
To convert in DV format with mencoder, mencoder should be compiled with libdv support. But mencoder in karmic ( version 2:1.0~rc3+svn20090426-1ubuntu10) is not compiled with libdv . I ask the Question #90829 why is not compiled with this option.

In previous version of ubuntu, the dv export woks well because the version of mencoder used is the version from medibuntu , who supports libdv. At this time medibuntu does not provide a mencoder package for karmic.

DV conversion with ffmpeg seems possible, so a solution can be to use ffmpeg in place of mencoder for DV conversion.
