[FFmpeg-user] Mapping audio from DV25 to MPEG2

[James Anderson]

Is it possible to map both mono streams to the output file as either two mono steams or a stereo pair? I'm only able to map one channel at a time, I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
James
