What a mess. In a maze of little standard, all

will use the simple rule: "left-to-right, then front-to-back, finally
LFE", which seems to match the dolby/AC3/Protools order.
e.g. (LFE in parenthesis)
5.1:
1 2 3
4 5
(6)
7.1:
1 2 3
4 5
6 7
(8)
7.1 wide:
1 2 3 4 5
6 7
(8)
Makes perfect sense to me. Having Lfe last is also
convenient as it isn't (shouldn't be) used for music.
etc. Least it's logical. :) A downside is that
just taking the first
two channels doesn't get you stereo,
You shouldn't count on getting usable stereo from
just L,R anyway.
