Transcode is an old, unmaintained, transcoder for video and audio.
I've made a patch to allow building it with GCC 10, but I am not sure
how to test it. So maybe time to drop it...
At this point, I've discussed with D. Reno, who pointed up that
there is a replacement, whose name is handbrake [1].

I've not tried to build it yet, but it has both a cli and a gui, and
seems to be able to do all what transcode was able to do (correct me if
not).

So my proposition is (after some tests maybe) to drop transcode and add
handbrake (building does not seem hard [2], no idea of the SBU's).

Thoughts?

One additional advantage to using Handbrake is that it can rip BluRays in addition to DVDs. When I was in charge of the streaming aspect of the eSports club in college, we used Handbrake (in my case, on Debian) to convert the .flv files that OBS Studio used to give out to something more standard... like MP4 or AVI.
