speedyrazor Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 I am trying to adapt the below Applescript code to change the audio channel assignment of a multichannel Quicktime file consisting of video and 8 audio channels from the default 'Mono' to 'Left, Right, Front Left, Front Right, LFE', etc, which can be done manually from 'Show Movie Properties/Audio Settings. The below script successfully changes the audio channels 'name' but I want it to change the 'channels' assignment, but I can't figure out how to get it working. I am on Mavericks with Quicktime Pro 7. on run open (choose file with prompt "Choose source file(s)" with multiple selections allowed) end run on open ff repeat with f in ff remap_sound_tracks_name(f's POSIX path) end repeat end open on remap_sound_tracks_name(f) (* string f : POSIX path of source movie file *) script o on map(n) set mm to {¬ {"Sound Track 1", "Left"}, ¬ {"Sound Track 2", "Right"}, ¬ {"Sound Track 3", "Center"}, ¬ {"Sound Track 4", "LFE Screen"}, ¬ {"Sound Track 5", "Left Surround"}, ¬ {"Sound Track 6", "Right Surround"}, ¬ {"Sound Track 7", "Left Total"}, ¬ {"Sound Track 8", "Right Total"} ¬ } repeat with m in mm if m's item 1 = n then return m's item 2 end repeat return n end map set f to f as POSIX file tell application id "com.apple.quicktimeplayer" -- QuickTime Player 7 set dc to count documents open f repeat until (count documents) > dc delay 0.2 end repeat tell document 1 repeat with t in (get tracks whose audio channel count > 0) set t to t's contents set n to t's name set n1 to my map(n) if n1 ≠ n then set t's name to n1 end repeat if modified then save close end tell end tell end script tell o to run end remap_sound_tracks_name Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/297263-quicktime-audio-channel-assign-left-right-front-left-lfe-etc/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
