Description
How to reproduce:
ffmpeg -c:a:0 ac3 -ac 6 -ab 448k -ar48000
Where a:0 = DTS or a DTS MA Track
9/1/2015
It appears to ignore the 6 in the -ac 6 and just down mixes to 2 tracks.

Replying to JohnGalt:
ffmpeg -probesize 5G -analyzeduration 5G -i "sample.mkv" -map 0:0 -map 0:1 -map 0:2 -map 0:1 -map 0:2 -c:v copy -c:a:0 copy -c:a:1 copy -c:a:2 ac3 -ac 6 -ab 448k -ar 48000 -c:a:3 aac -ac 2 -ab 192k -ar 48000 -scodec copy -strict experimental -f mp4 -movflags faststart "result.m4v"
I think the problem is the -ac 2 meant for the aac track. It's being set for all the audio tracks.
Try using -ac:2 6 and -ac:3 2.
comment:4 by , 9 years ago
Changing it to:
-c:a:2 ac3 -ac:2 6 -ab:2 448k -ar:2 48000 -c:a:3 aac -ac:3 2 -ab:3 192k -ar:3 48000
Had the same results. The AC3 track is 2 channel stereo the same as the aac track
comment:5 by , 9 years ago
Other interesting thing: In Media Info the DTS:MA and DTS tracks show channels: 2, Original Channels: 8 and 6 respectively. It's like instead of doing a copy it's modifying them too.
comment:6 by , 9 years ago
Could you post the entire console output? You left the details about the generated output file out in comment 2. And it would also help if you could upload the same, or at least a cut version of it as mentioned in https://ffmpeg.org/bugreports.html, then either upload it here or to the ftp.
Also, you may want to force the usage of libdcadec (which i see you enabled during configure), rather than the internal dca decoder since that one isn't truly lossless yet.
Simply add -c:a:# libdcadec before the -i parameter, or just recompile ffmpeg with --disable-decoder=dca.
comment:7 by , 9 years ago
You can download the sample from here:
and click on the mage between the two adds. This is simplified but the result is the same. You get DTSMA with channels(s): 2 channels, Channel(s)_Original: 8 channels/6 chnanels and then AC3 2 channel stereo and aac 2 channel stereo.
Given that I'm explicit about the mappings now I would have expected the AC3 track to be 6 channel converted from the DTS-MA track and the aac track to be 2 channel converted from the DTS-MA track.

With the same mappings, try "-c:a:0 copy -c:a:1 ac3 -ac:2 6 -c:a:2 aac -ac:3 2" instead. Apparently the -ac option considers all the streams from the output file and not just the audio ones.
I'm not sure if this is intended, so I'll keep this open until someone else can confirm.
And again, i recommend you to use the libdcadec decoder instead of the internal dca decoder. It will allow you to decode all 8 channels from the dts-ma stream losslessly.
comment:9 by , 9 years ago
Ok, that's odd, but it works. Now the only thing that isn't working properly (or maybe it is) is that the DTS Master track that's the first one that is copied shows in the original .mkv as 8 channels for the channels property and in the remixed output it's showing as 2 channels and original = 8 instead of showing as 8 channels. (But then shows channel positions for all 8 channels)
If I use MKV instead of m4v, the resulting file shows all 8 channels though.

There is definitely a bug, it is just unknown whether the bug is in the documentation or the code:
https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-all.html#Audio-Options mentions the same stream_specifier for -ac as https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-all.html#Main-options for -codec but the following does not work as documented:
