Lost audio on a channel after audio mapping

[Renevk]

Hi i'm using Edius 6.51. And use video with (SONY) AVCHD 5.1 audio . I do the audio mapping according this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UhQ6ss6RXVc

Two questions:
1) I find it strange that if i look to the audiomixer to channel 1a and 2a i see no activity on the peakmeters for that channels

2) After i do that i have normal audio from the imported video. But if a add aan song (wav) on e.g. audio track 4 , i cannot hear the audio. What do i do wrong???

Thnx for helping.

That video is so wrong.
That is not the correct way to set up 5.1 . It has been explained many times here with screenshot.
(please do a search)

You can't hear 4 as it has no output. Because of the wrong setup.


He is just taking the audio from VA 1 and outputting to 8 channels.


The best way to set up you 5.1 is using the audio tracks for all audio:
CH1 = Left
CH2 = Right
CH3 = Center
CH4 = LFE
CH5 = Left Surround
CH6 = Right Surround

When EDITING leave the mapping on 2 out. (to hear all channels)
When outputting use the mapping to path tracks to the put put channels.
