Great !!! Thanks a lot !
I think it deserves a news on ffmpeg.org front page.

BTW: I seem to recall that there was a CODEC_ID_EAC3 in the
old days, during SoC developpment. It's now gone, because
the same decoder handle both AC3 and EAC3.
But this is causes some trouble. Various containers have a
specific way to store EAC3 (different than AC3). It's generaly
simply a different codec ID (or whatever the format calls it).
As we have no CODEC_ID_EAC3, muxers can't distinguish between
AC3 and EAC3, and thus can't mux EAC3 correctly.
I propose to add a CODEC_ID_EAC3, to allow correct muxing.
See attached patch.
