Well, as that's not the command I suggested, perhaps you should ask whoever
gave that version.

Firstly, it looks like you're running a script, which could change things.
Take one file. Use its name.

If it is called my file.mpg use this command

ffmpeg -i myfile.mpg -vcodec msmpeg4v2 -acodec wmav2 newfile.avi

If you don't type exactly those commands, don't bother posting what
happened.
No scripts, no Handbrake. If someone is giving you those commands, you are
better off asking them.

Make sure the file doesn't start with a $. Have it start with a letter or
number NOTHING else.

I repeat. the command is

ffmpeg -i myfile.mpg (using the file name) -vcodec msmpeg4v2 -acodec wmav2
newfile.avi
