JRSS down-mixing and psuedo-surround
« on: November 07, 2015, 02:59:31 pm »

I'm running "2 channels inside a 7.1 container" to cater for active stereo speakers and using JRSS mixing to down-mix multi-channel sources to stereo. What is the goal of the "detect stereo sources in surround (psuedo-surround") check-box? Also, a number of videos have multiple sound-tracks (e.g., stereo, 5.1). Is there a way to set-up JRiver so that it selects the stereo mix as the default for all such videos? Or do I need to do this on a file-by-file basis?

The "detect stereo sources . . ." option was added as a check-box to test functionality with some sources. It should usually be checked. TV shows will sometimes have a 5.1 stream, but only have stereo content within the 5.1. JRiver tries to detect this and will upmix the stereo to 5.1. It is primarily an up-mixing feature.

Thanks, Mojave. Is there a way to define the default soundtrack on videos that have multiple sound-tracks? (I'd like all to default to stereo rather than multi-channel which is then downmixed.)
