No more DLNA profiles?

[carrierfry]

So, I had the opposite problem (I don't want Jellyfin to transcode anything if not absolutely necessary) and after the switch to the plugin, Jellyfin tried to always transcode 4K HDR movies.
After a lot of trial and error with digging around in the profiles XMLs, I finally managed to get it to work! Here is the XML I use now:

Code:

Since I changed a lot of stuff, I can't 100% guarantee that all changes I did were necessary in the end, but here is what I did:
1. copy the custom profile I made for the original DLNA to the new plugin profile location (since I use a Samsung TV here, I had to replace the default Samsung profile as the DLNA plugin always used that one for my TV)
2. add a "hevc" CodecProfile
3. change the amount of channels in the "VideoAudio" codec profile from 6 to 8

Maybe this helps!
