tar is used to extract tar balls. The best way to get a multitude of unix utilities onto a windows box is to install cygwin from www.cygwin.com (free and open).

tar xf tarball.tar
or for gzip compressed tarballs
tar xzf tarball.tar.gz
Installed cygwin, perl, and mplayer (smplayer). Typed:
./tablet-encode --preset n900 dvd: simps1e1.avi
and got:
mencoder is not installed or doesn't support lavc encoder

Do I need to do something else after installing SMPlayer?
