It's not too difficult to create a profile, but the syntax of the text is critical. I'm rather surprised that a Sony UHD player doesn't support E-AC3. Does it have a Netflix app within it? Because Netflix uses E-AC3, as do many online streaming sources.
Here's how a users-profile.xml file would be formatted. But what actually goes within the profile itself is wholly dependent on what you are attempting to do. I made an attempt to capture only E-AC3 audio, regardless of container. But chances are it might need more fine tuning, as this is only going to transcode the audio and pass the video through. If for some reason your video codec isn't supported, then it needs to be tweaked to capture just that particular video codec as well. save this text into a new file in the Serviio/config folder and name it user-profiles.xml. Then restart the Serviio process in the Serviio console to load the new file. Finally, select the new profile (named Sony UHD Player) for your player and give it a go. I haven't tested this code, so in case Serviio won't work after adding the file, remove it and let me know and I'll check it closer.
