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?

Nevermind, found the note about the transcoder and Centos 6. As a workaround I found this script and it works now.
