Hmmm... I've got ffmpeg 0.4.7 (binary reports 0.4.6, but I compiled from the
source tarball for 0.4.7...), mpegtools 1.6.1, transcode 0.6.8, libavifile
0.7.38... the list goes on.  The only thing I haven't done yet is rebuild
the Myth libs & mythtranscode after upgrading all of those other libraries.
I'll try that today and cross my fingers.
