Citando Marc Lavallée <m...@hacklava.net>:

Excerpt from https://xiph.org/flac/faq.html#general__channels :



"FLAC supports from 1 to 8 channels per stream. Channels are only grouped in FLAC to take advantage of interchannel correlation and to define common channel assignments (like stereo L/R, 5.1 surround, et cetera). When encoding a large number of independent channels it is expected that they are coded separately and if required, multiplexed together in a suitable container like Ogg or Matroska."

Good info.

But this is a bit typical as an “answer”: HOW would you code many channels separately in Flac (available sw to use etc.), and how to multiplex into a “suitable container”?

Ok, no problem for anybody else... I am supposed to see! 😇

(https://xiph.org/flac/ogg_mapping.html

They don’t explain this at all, unless you take the faq answer as a definition.)

Best,

Stefan

P.S.: They just have to extend (too) old definitions. 

As Fons says, the limit is a limit (paraphrasing Theresa May) - and not justified from a current perspective.

FLAC is supported for input only. The output is 9 channels,

 and FLAC can't handle that. Never understood why they put

 in that silly limit...



 Ciao,
