Samsung B-series: Transcode Matroska with VC1

Issue #361 resolved
Former user created an issue

The Samsung B-series does not support VC1 within matroska. However, it apparently supports VC1 within mpegts (according to spec and experimentation).

So I've added the following line

            <Matches container="matroska" vCodec="vc1" />

to the section

        <Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetACodec="ac3">

of the appropriate profile ("Samsung TV (B-series)") and it appears to be working fine.

I've just started using Serviio (so far it's great!), so I'm not sure if that's the best solution... especially with different audio codecs. However, it's working for me so I wanted to share it.
