encoding and 5.1 surround audio help
Hi, I'm looking for some advice and technical expertise. We have produced a video (1080p23.976) with a 5.1 surround mix. Many thanks for any answers or advice... 1. Last time we had worked with the Brightsign a year or so ago, 24p playback was not supported (the brightsign played it back at 29.97). Has this changed? 2. Is 5.1 only supported with MPEG2, or H264 as well? 3. If MPEG2, would I encode the video and AC3 audio separately, and then mux together to .ts with TSMuxer? If H264, would I use the same process, or will the Brightsign play back .mov with AC3 audio? 4. Are there any specs I should be aware of for AC3 5.1 audio? The video's audio is being mixed and encoded elsewhere so it would be nice to have specs to give to them.
