I'm delivering a movie to a distributor and having a hard time getting the correct audio embedded in the QT. Their specs are:
Audio must be embedded in the movie file (5.1 surround, if available, and stereo L/R - 8 tracks, each track assigned to its own channel and labeled accordingly) Stereo L/R or Lt/Rt must be stereo paired in the movie file. See below for audio specifications.
CH 1: Left
CH 2: Right
CH 3: Center
CH 4: LFE/Subwoofer
CH 5: Left Surround
CH 6: Right Surround
CH 7: Stereo L (or Lt)
CH 8: Stereo R (or Rt)
They told my mixer to configure sound for multiple mono. I'm confused in regards to the track type/output assignments when initially creating the sequence. When I set a track type to mono, it looks like the output assignment assumes that it's 1 of a dual mono stereo pair. So do I set the first 6 track types to adaptive? And then the last two tracks as mono for the Stereo L-R and then pan each accordingly?
Does anyone have experience with embedding 5.1 and stereo in a Quicktime like this?
Thanks.

I recall reading where a new update to PP made something like this possible, but I've no experience actually doing it. Maybe something from the following will help.

I'm having the same issue, commenting in case anyone has a solution for this. I can't figure out how to have both 5.1 (mapped to L,R,C,Lfe,Ls,Rs) on channels 1-6, and then stereo L&R on channels 7&8, all in the same file. But that's how the distributor needs me to deliver the ProRes QT.

It's all in how you setup the sequence and options.
@Jarle_Leirpolland @Warren Heaton are two of the best helping with this. I think @Richard M Knight also.
