In this blog post I demonstrate how to create QuickTime movies with
multichannel sound,using QuickTime 7 Pro:

I’ve used this in a number of installations with 6 to 8 channels of audio, and
it works fine. This blog post documents an apple script to automatically play
back QuickTime videos in fullscreen mode:

My experience is that QT movies with multichannel audio plays back slightly
less reliable than QT movies with stereo only. With stereo I have several time
set up a mac mini, and it has run without a hitch and without any need for
restarts in installations running up to a month. With multichannel audio there
is a tendency of the movie to stall at some point, after several hours of
playing. For this reason it might be best to quit QT and shut the mac down at
the end of the day, and restart just in time for opening hours the next day.
Doing so I have had playback with no problems in two projects with a total
exhibition time of five months this year.
Best,
Trond
