VLC doesn't yet handle transcoding to mpeg 4 audio (mpeg aac) so using 
"acodec=mp4a" won't work.

If you want mpeg audio layer3, use "acodec=mp3" but you need to have ffmpeg 
compiled with mp3lame support.

otherwise, use mpga (mpeg audio layer 2) but the quality of mpga isn't 
really good (the encoder doesn't use psycho-acoustics).
