You can't remove the DRC metadata from AC3 tracks without recode, but you can play or decode it without apply the DRC.

Thanks Sir.
Was thinking it was a tag/flag in the metadata, so it was editable.

Set the proper option in the decoder.

In ffmpeg add -drc_scale 0 before input.

In most players there is like a checkbox in the audio options
