Hi,
I am using VLC 0.8.2 on Mac OS X, but I think the problem is not platform specific.
I have encoded a movie in H264, and sound is in AAC 5.1. All of that is inside a .mov file container.
In Quictime, audio channels are correctly setup (L R SL SR LFE SUB channels), but when I am playing the file with VLC, channels are not sent to their right places, center is sent to right, etc…
Is there a way to have VLC sending correct channels using QT info ?
If not, the suggestion would be to add an audio filter to VLC to manually assign audio channels to audio channels outputs. It should not be too hard, is it ?
I have a M-Audio Sonica Theater as audio device, but the problem does not come from this I think.
I have an other probem, but not related to audio : this H264 file was produced by ffmpegX (mencoder engine) and was originally a .h264 file. This file is unreadable in Quicktime (blank), but readable by VLC. However, if I try to change manually the position in the movie, or if I try to fast forward, VLC is crashing. Any idea on what is this problem, and how to fix this ?
