The way it is done currently in ffmpeg.c, the encoder doesn't know the
values from the decoder (not initialized yet), only the demuxer and the
commandline. The demuxer reports the values in the original stream, not
taking into account any change by the decoder for downmixing based on
request_channels. The recent patch I applied to reset channel_layout to
0 if it didn't match number of channels was done so that the encoder
would at least not see the wrong value based on the demuxer and could
try to guess the best layout based on the number of channels given in
the commandline. This is not ideal, but better than having the wrong value.
A better solution might be to swap the order of initialization so that
decoders are initialized first, then channels and channel_layout are
copied from the decoder to the encoder before it is initialized. But
I'm not sure if there is some specific reason that the encoders are
currently initialized first.
