[QUOTE="kiwijunglist, post: 628649, member: 76888"] btw ac3filter handle 5.1 aac very well, so if it is 5.1 AAC you may find the channels are reversed. also a lot of receivers can't handle 5.1 AAC via passthrough, you may find that ac3filter does 5.1 AAC -> AC3 -> SPDIF rather than 5.1 AAC -> SPDIF. If it ac3filter does 5.1 AAC -> SPDIF and your receiver doesn't support 5.1 AAC you will only get a stereo image. If you receiver doesn't do 5.1 AAC and you do 5.1 AAC -> AC3 -> SPDIF using ac3fitler then the channels will be all wrong. You need to use ffdshow to do the 5.1 AAC conversion because it correctly re-orders the channels. The channel order in AC3 and AAC is different. Dale77 - What you should be doing is playing the file in MPC-HC then go file -> properties -> details -> copy + paste the data. [/QUOTE]
