Hi, all.
I'm trying to create a profile for a device transcoding and I would like to know how to do it exactly (content, folder location, etc.).
I want to do this or that when I use a Chromecast device. In fact, I want to do something like that:
<DirectPlayProfiles>
<VideoProfile container="mp4,mkv,avi" videoCodec="h264,hevc" audioCodec="ac3,dts" />
</DirectPlayProfiles>
<TranscodingProfiles>
<TranscodingProfile type="Video" audioCodec="ac3" />
</TranscodingProfiles>
Meaning that I want to transcode everything that is not an ac3 to that same codec. For example: aac->ac3, ac3->ac3 (passthrough). And I want to do it just when I use my chromecast (don't ask why, I just want to do it, I know Chromecast supports aac or eac3, etc.)
Thank you, mates!
