Differences in the Channel Layout for certain cases
nsaadi opened this issue · 4 comments
Mediainfo v23.4
We have differences in the Channel Layout for certain cases, for exemple when we use ffmpeg and Sencore they are agree on a Channel Configuration layout: mono (C), and previously with mediainfo we had the value "C", which was fine.
However, now mediainfo returns "M", which means mono but in the sense of: not multi-channel.
What can we understand from this new change? We think it's a regression. Is it possible to look into this issue and give us a quick response, please?
Best regards
What can we understand from this new change?
We try to do the difference between M (Mono = not multi-channel, or without indicated position) and C (Center = there is a position explicitly indicated).
If you think that the content indicates C rather than M, please share a sample file or at least a MediaInfo report.
We think it's a regression.
Why? And how does it impact you? Difficult to map M to C in your workflow?
Is it possible to look into this issue and give us a quick response, please?

As said in the previous message, it is wanted, our current policy for all formats is to handle 1-channel content as "mono" except when the format makes an explicit difference between M and C.
what is the issue with handling "M" there? Isn't it a mono-channel content? If not, where are the other channels?
Hello
