Wrapper for VideoStation and DLNA MediaServer for DTS, EAC3 and TrueHD with AAC 5.1:

Synology VideoStation and MediaServer ffmpeg wrapper with DTS, EAC3 and TrueHD support. It enables hardware transcoding from Synology´s ffmpeg or Gstreamer for video and transcoding DTS, HEVC, EAC3, AAC, True HD from the ffmpeg of the SynoCommunity. When you use this SynoCommunity´s ffmpeg, you will have AAC 5.1 512kbps Surround and another audio track MP3 2.0 256kbps Stereo for Chromecast or GoogleTV or other clients that don´t accept 5.1 AAC.

Works fine the OffLine transcoding and the streaming of tipical extensions like: MKV, MP4, AVI... Works fine the thumbnails in VideoStation.
