Patch posted.

Perhaps I should have added a code comment saying that even though the ATSC 
standard says DRC should be applied by default, allowing users it to be off, 
ffmpeg, being a back-end library, should have it off by default, because if 
developers don't know about the DRC meta data, DRC will be applied without the 
ability to turn it off, as is the case with Kodi and VLC.

I'm (somewhat) OK with it if writers/manufacturers of media players include it 
and enable it by default, but by doing so, they are aware of what they're 
doing, and will very likely include it as a user option.
