Mac Channel Mapping

Description of problem or question:

I haven't used handbrake for a while; I remember when I did that in order to get it to produce properly mapped 5.1 videos I would have to manually make those adjustments and remap the channel settings.

With the latest build and using the 1080 30fps preset, would I still have to remap the channels?

Also, will I have to take extra steps in order to get "forced" subtitles on movies, like when someone speaks momentarily in a foreign language?

Thank you!


Operating system and version (e.g., Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, macOS 10.13 High Sierra, Windows 10 Creators Update):

Will be ripped and played on Mac Mini 10.14 Mojave--I'm assuming this will have the HP to play these files?

I haven't actually done anything yet. I'm trying to figure out if I still need to do the type of corrections referenced here:

As i said, its been a while since I last used this setup--but seeing how old that link it? I didn't realize it had been THAT long.

I'm kind of thinking it must be fixed since I haven't seen any references to this issue anywhere recently, but I just wanted to check.

That post seems to be mostly dealing with bugs in Quicktime, not handbrake.

Why not TRY it and see.

Thanks guys...quicktime on Macs is still a little screwed up in a few places, but it seems like that particular bug isn't a problem right now if I rip in handbrake and play through Kodi.

Well if you play through Kodi you bypass QuickTime entirely ;)

QuickTime 7 will be removed in the next macOS release, and Perian has been dead for years. So it's not an issue anymore anyway.
