#1661: the transcodes does not deal with symlinks properly

 Priority:  minor                       |   Milestone:     
Component:  mythtv                      |     Version:     
 Severity:  medium                      |  
----------------------------------------+-----------------------------------
 If you try to transcode a recording that's really a symlink to another
 directory, it replaces the symink with the transcoded file, and leaves the
 original "lost" on the other directory. This patch dereferences the
 symlink so the new file is in the same directory as the original, and so
 the replacement works properly, and also fixes the symlink when the file
 gets renamed.
