It looks like it's only 2 channel, not 6 as I expected. Am I ending up
with 5.1 audio in the file, but can only play 2 channel on my computer
or is it really only 2 channels in the end file? If only 2 channels,
what do I need to do to get 5.1? I don't yet have myth connected to a
5.1 sound system so I can't give it the old listen test.
I'm sorry if this is a FAQ. I did look at the myth.org website
including the FAQ and knowlegebase as well as trying a google search,
but searching for "mythdvd audio channel" returns eleventy-billion
unrelated hits.
