  • Mono tracks in DNxHD to stereo export

    Posted by Vasco Daneva on June 30, 2018 at 2:14 pm

    I had to transcode a 2 hour 4K project to DNxHD in order to properly encode it from Premiere Pro through Media Encoder. But now in Premiere Pro I have 2 mono audio tracks instead of the usual single stereo track. I have to produce a H265 film (and maybe a scaled down Bluray). Any advice?

    Thank you,
    Vasco

    DNXHD MXF doesn’t support stereo tracks like that (two channels in one track) Only the Quicktime container supports that type of stereo track. With DNX HD MXF you get one track for the left channel and one track for right channel. Make sure they are panned properly on playback. If they are both center panned, you will get mono.

    Thank you, John and Dave!
    Would you advise that I pan one all the way to the left and the other all the way to the right in order to preserve the original audio balance?

    Regards.
