I finally got around to tracking down the channel order problem that some users had mentioned with my AC-4 enabled versions of Kódi 19 and 20. I've fixed the channel order issue and compiled Kódi 21.3 against said branch. You can get the stable version of **** 21.3 with AC-4 support at: https://github.com/ferrellsl/****-ac4/r ... /v21.3-ac4
Not sure why Kódi is such a bad word here but replace the asterisks with the proper spelling in the link and you'll be fine.
For those who want the channel-fixed version of ffmpeg, you can get that here: https://github.com/ferrellsl/ffmpeg-ac4
If you've been using Kódi 19 or 20 you can install 21.3 over the old versions but it will import all your old settings but you'll need to update your NextPVR add-on. Then things should work fine.
Kódi 21.3 with AC-4 Audio Support
Re: Kódi 21.3 with AC-4 Audio Support
It's simply due to unfortunate perceptions about that software. Certain business entities might see us allowing topics about "that software" and think we support piracy, simply because a lot of pirates used to use that software. We know that said software was made for legitimate reasons, and have a lot of respect for that group.
