6 Channel Discrete Option

Post by citrus »

I am running the latest version 0.10.5 x64 bit version on Windows. The Surround Sound section in the FAQ states:

https://trac.handbrake.fr/wiki/SurroundSoundGuide

Another method is to create 5.1 channel AAC audio tracks. For the Track Mix, select "6 channel discrete" from the drop-down menu.

This does not appear to be a listed option in the Mixdown drop down. What this renamed to something else? I am trying to convert AC3 to AAC 5.1 and with to retain the discrete audio channels.

Thank You

"6 channel discrete" => "5.1 Channels"

The docs need a few updates.
