From <http://lists.xiph.org/pipermail/flac-dev/2013-January/003581.html>: "Tim's proposal seems reasonable but it conflicts with the FLAC documentation that says the channel ordering follows SMPTE/ITU-R recommendations. I think we may be butting up against an area where the standards aren't clear. ITU-R BS.2159-4 (http://www.itu.int/dms_pub/itu-r/opb/rep/R-REP-BS.2159-4-2012-PDF-E.pdf) doesn't define a 7.1 layout but simply diagrams several possibilities on page 27. DTS-HD seems to specify 7 different possible 7.1 layouts (http://www.scribd.com/doc/17630423/21/Channel-Layout)." _______________________________________________ flac-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xiph.org/mailman/listinfo/flac-dev
