Thank you L. I'll use Mediainfo, I have it installed but I thought ffprobe has a command for that.

BTW, could you tell me, How the decoder will sort out the channels to send to the right speaker ?
- by the list order, I mean first to FL, second to FR, and so on
- or by the label, and what happen when there is no label or multi mono channels ?

I’m not sure I have an answer for that, but maybe you can use the disposition resource page I linked to run some of your own experiments. For example, make your own stereo recording of a statement such as “this is the left channel” with the right mic turned off. Then use the disposition instructions to move and/or copy it to the channel of your choice, then audition the results. If you want, and have the necessary equipment, you should be able to reassign any existing audio channel to any other.

I came accross this command. Is it reliable?

ffprobe -v error -show_entries stream=channel_layout -of csv=p=0 filename.flac
ffmpeg -v error -layouts | awk '/5.1 /{print $2}'

Thanks

I have an audio file, with MediaInfo I get

Audio
Format                                   : FLAC
Format/Info                              : Free Lossless Audio Codec
Duration                                 : 2 min 18 s
Bit rate mode                            : Variable
Bit rate                                 : 5 439 kb/s
Channel(s)                               : 4 channels
Channel layout                           : L R Ls Rs
Sampling rate                            : 96.0 kHz
Bit depth                                : 24 bits
Compression mode                         : Lossless

With the above ffprobe command, I get

> ffprobe -v error -show_entries stream=channel_layout -of csv=p=0 101Be.flac
quad
> ffmpeg -v error -layouts | awk '/quad /{print $2}'
FL+FR+BL+BR

What is the correct answer?
