Exoplayer audio works under cartain condition

[Makhuta]

I was tinkering with Live TV streams and found out that Exoplayer was not playing audio on default configuration. I had configured ErsatzTV alongside physical DVR and connected them to Plex. The ErsatzTV used audio codec AAC3 which lead to Plezy being able to play stream with audio using Exoplayer, so I tried using Threadfin to "restream" the Live TV using FFMPEG using this command:

-hide_banner -loglevel error -analyzeduration 1000000 -probesize 1000000 -i [URL] -map 0:v -map 0:a:0 -c:v copy -c:a ac3 -b:a 384k -ac 6 -c:s copy -f mpegts -fflags +genpts -copyts pipe:1

everything else in Threadfin was basically same according to tutorial/default config. Then I added the physical DVR "proxied" throught Threadfin to Plex and then I was succesfully able to run the Live TV using Exoplayer with audio.

Hope you find it usefull.
