use `rclone mount` and whatever any transcoder tool you want.

I would like to express my deepest thanks to @ncw for not only providing and maintaining the software open-source, but also for continuing to be active here in the forum! Thanks, Nick! I would like to make the following feature request: Like so many people, I use rclone to mount my movies and series from Google Drive on a server running Plex, Emby or (in my case) Jellyfin. Since some films use DTS audio, …

But IMO it does not look like something what makes sense for rclone.
