           Summary: [PATCH] audioconvert does not preserve channel positions
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: HEAD CVS
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-plugins-base
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net

     GNOME version: Unspecified
   GNOME milestone: Unspecified


Currently, audioconvert does not pass the channel positions, which disallows
i.e. recoding from DTS do AC3, because dtsdec produces float samples while
ffmpeg AC3 encoder accents only integers.

The attached patch ensures that the position information is passed when the
channel count does not change.
