Re: [linux-audio-user] 5.1 encoding...

my idea would be the following:
as far as i know audio-dvd is the same thing in general as a video dvd, but
instead of, or possibly also besides, the video_ts dir on a video dvd, audio
data has to be put in similar naming maner into audio_ts (or something like
that). those directories have to be isod with a videodvd flag, or simply
using k3bs functions for that. k3b show a window to pop files in, usually a
bunch of mpg videos, but you could try that with mpg audio. id try to encode
the waves (why not also first put all channels into one wave with a tool like
snd) into some mpg1 multichannel audio.
thats just a ruff guess how to do this, but maybe it helps.
