Hi,

something like Dolby Atmos probably makes use of (almost) all available channels.

16 channels were initially intended by DCI to make enough room for future sounds evolution (and probably other datas object-oriented in case of Atmos)

As 96khz for sound sampling - which I've never seen so far in "regular" DCP - gives ability to "double" channels by algorythm sub-sampling process.

Best regards,
Gérald.

Currently, DCP-o-matic maxes out at 12 audio channels (which is fine ;-) ). The channel number is set under DCP properties. Will this actually create a 12ch BWF/MXF in the DCP, or will more than 8ch always create a 16ch BWF/MXF with unused channel padded with silence?

Wondering wether 10/12/14ch BWF/MXF are allowed at all...
