Hi !

Some days ago, I wrote a message about surround. I
asked if a 5.1 program player existed on either mac or
PC. and about a valid 5.1 format. As I didn't get any
answer, I said to myself : 
" Is this question is really to stupid or obvious to
be asked, or does really anybody knows about a
programm like that or maybe it is silply impossible
yet ?" Is this question is obvious then I am don't
know the answer but if someone have any information
even little one could somebody help me please. It is
for a project of 5.1 internet website.

Thanks a lot

Nicolas

No responses generally mean that no one has any relevant information for 
you. Give it a while as some people may be away from their computers, 
others only seem to check their mail now and then. No replies never ever 
  implies that the question was too silly to bother answering. While 
we're on the subject I'm still waiting for a reply to my OSC question?? 
Anyone out there using OSC with csound in windows?

I suppose I should have answered this; many distractions recently!

There is a standard 5.1 format for WAVE, via the not-so-new-now format 
WAVEFORMATEXTENSIBLE; files in this format will be playable on Media 
player, if necessary mixed down to the available hardware. With Csound5 
now using libsndfile, such formats should be supported, though 
interactive means to request a specific channel configuration from 
Csound are, as far as I know, not implemented. The likely best is that 
such streams are rendered in a speaker-position-agnostic way, to the 
multi-channel device, with channels simply in order 1,2,3,4...

On the Mac, AIFF files can be multi-channel, but have no means of 
defining speaker configurations. This is remedied in the new CAF format 
which supports huge files (>4GB), and introduced formally in Tiger. I 
believe Eric added support for CAF to libsndfile, but it may be a while 
before we have non-trivial examples to play with, especially on the PC, 
though CAF is supported by Quicktime, and one presumes therefore is 
supported on Windows.

In any case, Mac applications (incl Quicktime) understand 
WAEVFORMATEXTENSIBLE, and will render them without difficulty. Given 
Macs will soon be only macIntel, the need for AIFF will evaporate other 
than for sentimental reasons.

I think he OSC questions should be revoiced as :
"Are liblo & OSC opcodes included in the csound windows distributions?"

My guess is no, they aren't.

I ask because in the following text it seems they are:
