ffmpeg -nostats -i mono.wav -filter_complex "aformat=channel_layouts=stereo,ebur128" -f null - does not give the appropriate output. It looks like `channel_layouts=stereo` is intelligent enough to apply pan law gain to each channel before remapping, but this results in the same inaccurate loudness measurement. A `dualmono=true` flag is convenient way to use the same ffmpeg call to measure loudness for all files, including multichannel files beyond stereo. See also: a similar option is enabled by default in R128GAIN - http://r128gain.sourceforge.net/ Thanks!
