Transcoder fails after upgrade

Hi,

after upgrading plex to version 1.0.0.2261 the transcoder does not work anymore. Direct play works fine.

I managed to trace down the problem to the following:

    Jun 24, 2016 20:00:56.850 [0x7fca95fff700] DEBUG - MDE: computed resolution bounding box of 640x480.

I think the interesting line is this here:

ERROR - [Transcoder] Unrecognized option 'crf:0'.

Since i don´t know how the transcoder works i have updated x264 and ffmpeg to the following version on my Ubutu 14.04 64-bit:

FFMPEG: ffmpeg version N-80283-g84efdab
x264: x264 0.148.2643 5c65704, built on Feb 9 2016, gcc: 4.8.4
