Hello,
I have been running my PeerTube instance for a while now, with no major trouble. However, the other day when I updated to PeerTube 3.0.1 via Yunohost, I noticed some errors around FFMPEG not being able to be upgraded (didn’t sound great…). The server came through otherwise fine though, and it looked like everything was working…until I tried adding new video content to the server. Now, every single video is stuck in a perpetual state of “transcoding”, and it’s failing in the background with the following error:
error[2/6/2021, 11:09:58 PM] Error in transcoding job.

Any idea on how to fix this? Should I just SSH into the server and uninstall/reinstall FFMPEG? Thanks!
