thanks. Roberto for the reply. I am now confirmed that it is not the
LD_LIBRARY_PATH's problem. Maybe transcode is looking for its libs in a
fixed location or something. 

Is there any way to specify transcode command line parameter when probing
with ldd? -- which lib for transcode to load depends on its parameter...

thanks
