"Option 2:
1) Add the Apache user to the group which currently owns all your files.
2) Change the permissions on your files to: 775 for directories and 664 for files.
This takes care of the warning from option 1, and you'll still be able to manually do FTP when you want. You will also no longer be prompted for FTP during install."
Now if I Create a group for ex: "user" and I add "www-data" to that group and add that group to the directory for cumulus.. will this enable me to bypass the FTP screen and continue the installation?
Thank you

PHP 7 deprecated and removed some things which breaks the installer. The main script is also untested with it.
Unknown encoder 'libvo_aacenc'
In your case, you actually discovered a weak check in our installer that needs to be made stricter.
There technically is no FTP workaround anymore. If you do, you will get errors during certain file operations i.e. changing file permissions, because they can only be executed by the owner of the file.
The correct approach is to either:
1) Run in CGI mode, using php-fpm. This will bypass FTP in the script, and allow you to FTP your files as normal
2) Run as Apache module (mod_php). You will not need FTP in the script, however you will not be able to modify the files (upload/download) using a different FTP user.
You are currently using method number 2. You were asked for FTP because you uploaded the files via FTP using a user different than the Apache user.
To fix your libvo_aacenc error, replace libvo_aacenc with just aac in Admin Panel -> Settings -> Video -> H.246 Options.
Hope this helps.
1. Any links outside of my admin panel bring me to a dead end error 404
2. I tried changing libvo aacenc with acc in settings video h.246. And I now get unknown encoder "acc" in my log
Thanks for all your time. I really appreciate it
