Transcoding only Audio DTS to ac3.

Hi,

i want to transcode all movie with DTS AudioCodec to ac3. The video-Codec should not be touched, cause my TV can play every Video-Format and the CPU-Powerusage would be too high.
I already wrote a profile, but i think it's not doing what it should do.
Here my work till now:

  Code:
<Profile id="150" name="Grundig " extendsProfile="1">
<Detection>
<HttpHeaders>
<X-AV-Client-Info>.*Grundig*.</X-AV-Client-Info>
</HttpHeaders>
<UPnPSearch>
<ModelName> Grundig </ModelName>
</UPnPSearch>
</Detection>
<Transcoding>
<Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetACodec="ac3">
<Mathces container="matroska" />
</Video>
</Transcoding>
</Profile>


The audio transcoding works, but i think it does also video transcoding, what i don't want it to do.

Thanks for any help.

Replace:
<Mathces container="matroska" />
by
<Matches container="*" aCodec="dca" />

-> All files with DTS audio will be remuxed to MPEGTS container, video codec copy and audio ac3 transcoded.
There is a syntax error Mathces vs Matches on your example.

Also Detection is wrong (based on Sony, will be different for Grundig), so you can remove it (not that it'll help you with transcoding)

Hi, I have a samsung lcd series 5 d550 tv, and I saw that the profile in serviio is for led tv.
Therefore it doesnt decode .dts files, and i want to add that to the profile.
I really dont know if my tv support ac3, and i haven't a HT so i prefer transcode to mp3
How it have to be?
  Code:
<Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetACodec="mp3" aBitrate="192" forceStereo="true">
           <Matches container="*" aCodec="dca" />
</Video>

Try the B series profile, it transcodes DTS to AC3
