I was playing around recently I noticed a few things about stereo vs Multi channel on VRD and have a couple of questions.
I will preface by noting that I understand that if the audio line is yellow= 5.1 and if it is blue it is 2.0.
1) If I have a 5.1 audio source and I use the audio adjustment slide to increase or decrease the volume of the subsequent saved file, it always is saved as 2.0. Is this a hard and fast rule, or is there a work around so I can keep it as 5.1 audio?
more importantly: 2) If I have 2 files, and 1st is 2.0 and the 2nd is 5.1 and I use the joiner function, the ENTIRETY of the new saved file appears to be 2.0. Why cant the audio be 2.0 for the 1st segment and 5.1 for the rest, or have the entire thing be 5.1 (with the 1st segment only outputting the left/right channels and the other 3 are just dead?
Is there a setting or work around this particular conundrum?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated
