Hi folks

This is my first post to this group.  I am running vlc on a Mac G4 dual gig running OS 10.2.4.

I am very excited to report that 7.1 is finally working with my MOTU 896 and it works beautifully.

However I still have a couple of questions.

1.  The 7.1 outputs - how are they ordered?  I see clearly that center is output 5 and LFE is output 6.  I assume then that one and two are front, 3-4 are middle and 7-8 are rear.  Is that correct or is it the other way around?

2.  When I set the Audio desynchronization to, for example, 1000 ms the actors lips still match the audio perfectly.  This stays true even after rebooting VLC and after re-booting the machine.  Why is that?

3.  Does anyone know the formula for measuring audio desynchronization for balanced XLR runs of 50 ft. on each channel when synching with a 75 foot VGA video run?

4.  Is it possible to grab a 5.1 signal out of a 7.1 signal since my audio card will only output 7.1?

Thank you very much to anyone who can offer any help.

Sincerely,

Evan Miller
