[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] avcodec/dovi - disable metadata compression by default

[Cosmin Stejerean]

From: Cosmin Stejerean <cosmin at cosmin.at>

not all clients support metadata compression, make this an option and off by
default until we can verify output.

vdr_dm_metadata_changed = 0 case fails the DV verifier so force this to true
for now until we can determine the correct output format for this case.
