Hi,

First, of course many thanks for a great music player. It's a good job to write something so simple and intuitively to use.

Lately I have been looking into getting some multichannel recordings, as these start to be available for online purchase. As moc does not support over 2 channels I have been looking a bit into the code, but so far have not found where this limitation is coming from. Do you have any idea how and where to change the code to get multichannel to work? I have some programming experience, but not with sound-related applications. I'm using alsa as back-end.

By the way, the flac file plugin does not check for multichannel, so moc freezes (the server thread actually) when you try to play a multichannel file. If you want I could write a small patch to introduce this check.

I'm also finishing my PhD thesis, so I won't have as much time as I'd like the coming months, but I would really like to get multichannel to work.

Thanks again for moc and for your help
Maarten
