OpenWrt & shairport-sync audio streaming

Hey,

I use my modem/router for a shairplay server. Works great. Problem is that shairport-sync-mbedtls is built to airplay 2 (when the makefile specifies it should build to airplay classic (or airplay 1)

This is a big deal because airplay 2 transcodes at 256kbps AAC, airplay classic uses ALC (big difference in sound quality).

I've tried opening a bug report on OpenWrt repository github but it was relegated as a non issue by a bot. I've tried using pkgs from other repos but same problem.

Unfortunately I'm not competent to compile myself, anyone have any ideas how I might resolve this?

Thanks for your reading
