ok boys and girls i'm back

here's a stupid question somebody may know about...

if i were, say, encoding some AC3 file with, say, ffmpeg tools - would i
start with a six channel wave file or something?  and then what order are
the channels in?  i assume the encoder is going to have a way it wants to do
that and if I have my center channel in what it thinks is right surround -
well that could be a problem, yeah?

my guess from the learning i've done so far is it goes:

1 - left
2 - right
3 - center
4 - sub
5 - right surround
6 - left surround

anybody have confirmation?

thanks!
