Just updated to 4.7.8 and am having issues with the transcoder. I have 3 applications with a mixture of both audio only and transrate templates. None of them are working. Is there an issue with the transcoder in 4.7.8?

If you’re updating from an early version of Wowza Streaming Engine to the most recent version- 4.7.8, there are updates/changes that will break functionality if you don’t take steps to address them.
Please carefully review the following article to properly upgrade without issue:
