Apologies if posted in wrong section, first time poster.
As per the title, a DVD rip of "The Corrs Unplugged" which has a dolby digital 5.0 audio track is displayed as containing a 4.1 audio track. I'm assuming 5.0 is pretty rare as DVDs go, hence perhaps why this hasn't come up before?
Many thanks to the developers and all who contribute to xbmc.

Is this a cosmetic Problem or has it any issues?

As far as the files in the Confluence skin, it does seem to assume that 5 channels equals the "4.1" image flag. There's no image for "5.0".

So one hopes this is only a cosmetic issue :)

Hmm. Seems that this cosmetic issue still stands in all versions!

It will continue to do so until someone has time and interest in coding a way for the software to make a distinction between 5.0 and 4.1.

But why can't this be distinguished? The "codec info" screen clearly shows the correct 5.0 for audio format. Is that information simply not available outside of that one screen?

I'm not a programmer, so I do not know the exact details.

Okay, I guess just add that to the general "request" heap!
For some reason I find I have more instances of 5.0 than 4.1... although both are rare.
