Comment (by iive):

 If you want to use the XviD encoder, you should specify it as "libxvid".
 The "lib" prefix indicates that it is external library.

 You can see all supported codecs and their proper names by calling `ffmpeg
 -codecs`

 The FFmpeg you have seems to be recent git version, but the program that
 generates the ffmpeg commands for you seems to be very old. I hope it is
 open source and you can update the strings on your own. There are other
 options you should update, but their changes are more recent and we output
 text hints.
