Possible Audio Configurations
The IPD Xedio plugin can manage the reading, the editing and the export of files with up
to 16 audio channels, grouped in stereo pairs and/or 5.1 groups.
The possible audio configurations are:
up to 8 stereo pairs
up to 5 stereo pairs and one 5.1 group
up to 2 stereo pairs and two 5.1 groups.
Within the general settings of Xedio Manager, you need to check the Enable 5.1
management parameter to allow the management of 5.1 tracks in the Xedio Suite.
When importing files with 2, 4, 8 or 16 audio channels, the assignment must follow the
default parameters set in the database. In case the default assignments cannot be
applied, all audio tracks will be considered as stereo pairs.
Note:
The output of 16 audio channels is managed through a multi-channel audio
board. To make sure that Xedio can use this audio board, you need to
manually change the audio board assignment in the Control
Panel of
Windows (Sounds and Audio devices properties > Playback and Recording
options).
