| 153 | The details of how the <application>FFmpeg</application> libraries
|

| 154 | are used has changed since this version of
|

| 155 | <application>Transcode</application> was released. The patch allows the
|
|---|
| 156 | package to be compiled, but some or all of the internal calls to
|
|---|
| 157 | <application>FFmpeg</application> may fail at run time (they report an error
|

| 158 | and processing continues, but without any output).

| 164 | the <command>tccat</command> program, which works. Some of the
