Movie Audio Track Information - Channel Layout

[lardners 7]

Hello,

Certain movies do not show not the audio track's channel layout, like 5.1 etc

Where does Emby pull this information from? Is it from the MKV file or how does it determine it?

Example that displays channel layout (5.1) and channels total (6):

 

Example that just displays channels total (6) but no channel layout:

Hi, it is header metadata in the audio stream. It does not have any functional use in Emby though, just that display.
