Thanks for telling.
This makes things easier for me: it's safer to patch the bug like this

Just curious: is there any channel coupling when encoding 2ch (stereo) ?

Also I spot a link in which you were talking about how to couple multilanguage
tracks:

I understand nothing about coupling but... it seemed like you had skipped the
most obvious coupling:

FL of one language coupled with FL of the other language,
FR of one language coupled with FR of the other language,
FC...

Isn't this the best way?
...or maybe I have not read the page correctly...

Yes, HeadAC3he, and the channels are not swapped.

no

I'm not sure if I should release such a patching-filter to the public. I want
Tobias to fix that!
