No audio when playing transcoded files

[AndyXH 70]

Currently as a work around. To do this, you need to install the Diagnostics plugin, reboot, then go to Diagnostic Options and scroll down a bit to see the two text fields.

Find: -segment_format mpegts

Replace: -segment_format mpegts -segment_format_options mpegts_flags=+system_b

It appears to be that the TV doesn't support ATSC-style E-AC3 descriptors in MPEGTS (when the HLS protocol is being used), but it supports the DVB-Standard EAC3 descriptors.
The latter are actually also a bit more common. This seems to be more related on the Samsung TVs. Emby is currently working on a solutions. For now if anyone is having a simulator issues please try above commands.

Hey @softworkz hope everything is going well. Just wanted to see if there's any progress on this ?

@SamES said he can adjust the request to the server to indicate whether the server should switch to DVB style descriptors. 

I can make the server switch to use DVB-style for transcoding when the client requests it.

But @Luke will have to coordinate the way how the client should request this from the server.
