wtf is this?
Code:
[2024-01-11 05:59:49.058 -05:00] [WRN] [1] MediaBrowser.MediaEncoding.Encoder.MediaEncoder: FFmpeg: Failed version check: "C:\Users\jefto\Downloads\ErsatzTV-v0.8.0-beta-win-x64\ffmpeg.exeCode:

System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception (2): An error occurred trying to start process 'C:\Users\jefto\Downloads\ErsatzTV-v0.8.0-beta-win-x64\ffmpeg.exe' with working directory 'D:\Jellyfin\Server'. The system cannot find the file specified.I think we disabled allowing the ffmpeg path to be changed in the UI starting with 10.8.13, but I think you can still modify system.xml, or was it encoder.xml?, to set the ffmpeg path.
Point it to the one bundled with Jellyfin or whatever custom ffmpeg you want to use.

Beautiful! Thank you so much! This solved the problem. And it's encoder.xml. And the ffmpeg above is used by ErsatzTV and it's a later version than the one provided with Jellyfin.
