Hi,

sorry for the late reply, I didn't have the time over the weekend ;-)
I've just installed the kodi dmo3 packages from unstable and the E-AC3
transcoding works again.
Thank you very much for the effort so far.

As the changelog reads, you've included ffmpeg 4.3.2. At the moment I
have installed the before mentioned kodi packages and additionally the
ffmpeg 4.3.2 packages are still installed from my workaround. For a
final test it would be better, if I'm going to remove these ffmpeg
packages to be 100% sure there are no further dependencies.

Which packages are no longer needed?
libavcodec58
libavfilter7
libavformat58
libavutil56
libpostproc55
libswresample3
libswscale5

An autoremove will not remove them.

Best regards
Thorsten
