Is there a setting i can use in my profile.xml that would tell serviio to transcode any file that has more than two channel audio, my current setup only supports 2 channel audio
have not had any luck yet.
any help is appreciated
cheers all.

yes, there is aMultichannel matcher attribute for this.
See
http://serviio.org/index.php?option=com ... icle&id=24and check profiles.xml for example

ok thanks ill try that.
ok ....I tried using the aMultichannel matcher in my profile but no luck.
I just remux files with multichannel i guess.... not that hard... and my real issue is multiple audio streams... having it select English instead of first audio stream.... but i think that was addressed somewhere and can be voted for i think.
anyway...
if you have any idea on why the multi channel option does not work.. let me know...
here is my transcode section of my profile.
