The FLAC format specification never defined the semantics of 7- and 8-channel files, which has caused some pain for some years now. Attached is a patch to define them. I don't know if this follows "follows SMPTE/ITU-R recommendations," but it follows common tool practice. I chose the set of surround speaker designations used by home theatre systems, which is the same set used by the

I apologize for the terribly long message, but here goes. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- First, regarding existing tools that I now about. libavcodec and users (e.g. HandBrake): - if there are 6 channels or less, the layout is set by the decoder as per the FLAC specification - if there are more than 6 channels, the layout is
