[MPlayer-users] Channels -> Speaker Mapping gone wrong.

[ProN00b]

Hi, i am having a problem with this MKV file, it plays good in VLC (no video
because my package is compiled without real support, nvm that), but when i play
it in Mplayer it takes the 6 channels thing literally (only channels 0 and 2
contain sound) and maps them somehow wrong (yeah, it is prolly doing the right
thing and the file is broken, but VLC plays it correctly) to my speakers so i
only get sound on one speaker.

I can get it to play correctly by passing "-af channels=2:2:0:0:2:1" to mplayer.

I wonder if i can get mplayer to somehow use that parameter by default only in
the case of files like that, or make it detect empty channels and assign
channels to speakers accordingly.
Thanks in advance.
