isom (mp4) does not support flac, this is not a limitation of FFmpeg. Which application would you use for playback of flac-in-mp4?

ok sounds alright

the error messages could be somewhat more descriptive though, looks just like a random failure, thats why i filed the bug.

some 5.1 receivers support FLAC5.1 decoding so i guess it could probably work with any player that just forwards it to the optical output...
