Add surround sound source media les to batches
There are two methods you can use to add audio les to a batch to create a surround sound job:
an automatic method that relies on lenaming to map the audio les to the proper channels and
a manual method that allows you to manually assign the audio les to the channels.
Each method results in a job to which you can add a setting that supports surround sound audio
outputs, such as Dolby Digital Professional, AIFF, and several audio codecs in the QuickTime
Movie output format.
Important: Some of the output formats have multiple congurations for the surround sound
audio channels. Be sure you know which conguration your intended playback device requires.
For example, the AIFF output format provides four dierent congurations for 5.1 (six-channel)
audio outputs, with the dierence being the order of the channels.
Assign les to surround channels with channel identier codes
1 In the Finder, append the channel identier code of the target surround channel to the lename
of each source audio le using these codes:
•
-L: Left front channel
•
-R: Right front channel
•
-C: Center front channel
•
-Ls: Left surround channel
•
-Rs: Right surround channel
•
-S: Center surround channel
•
-LFE: Low-frequency eects channel (Subwoofer, LFE)
