RE: 2 channel troubles

Posted by The Sound Guy on October 14, 2010 at 06:44:32:
I have Ton Koopman--Organ Spectacular & Aaron Neville--Devotion & AFAIK they do not have a dedicated stereo mix. The discs should have embedded information on how to down mix the multi-channel into stereo during playback. This will be output via the stereo outs. My Yamaha player has a down mix indication. If there is no explicit down-mix indication or setting, disable the center channel, surround channels & sub-woofer & the player should forcibly down mix it. These discs labels are mis-leading and not mis-labelled :-)

Only a few of my DVD-As like AIX, Silverline Classics, DG & EMI discs have separate stereo & surround channels. Teldec discs have only down mixable surround channels although they print as though they have both stereo & surround :-(
