Previously, there was no special code to convert stereo to multi-channel. The generic solution for this was to convert to mono, and then copy the result to all channels. That's a pretty bad solution, but at least something which always renders audio. MPD does something, instead of failing. Now that MPD has proper support for multi-channel (by defining the channel order), we can do better than that. It is a (somewhat) common case to play back stereo music on a DAC which can only do multi-channel. The best approach here is to copy the stereo channels to front-left and front-right, and apply the "silence" pattern to all other channels. |
