I suppose Apple will recognize this as more and more people get their hands on Hi-Res audio files, but who knows? It may take years рџџ.ДЎ. I desperately Googled this and that for hours, but can't seem to find perfect solution for this. For those who just want to stack Hi-Res audio files, yes, the problem is solved, but most of us want to carry them on portable devices as well (and of course, I'm not counting MacBook lol) I can transfer it to my iPod but iPod can't just play it, since it only accepts mov files with stereo channel. So, looks like the problem is solved with this method, but unfortunately, my iPod cannot play the file. If you right click it and click Get Info, iTunes even knows that it is 24 bit Multichannel Lossless audio!

What's more interesting, as you can see from the link above, if you change the file extension m4a to mov, they are added to iTunes library! It's actually added to Music library, not Movie library. Interestingly enough, all the files are played without any problem with QuickTime Player. Thus, to me at least, it seems that the problem is not about multi channel audio itself, but it's about Hi-Res multi channel audio files. For most people, converting to 2.1 channel would suffice, but there are some audiophiles out there with 5.1 surround sound system.ДЇor testing purpose, if I add low profile multichannel HE-AAC audio, they work fine. If I convert them into 2.1 Channel (with same 24-bit) m4a files, they work fine. I'm sitting on hundreds of 24-bit 5.1 Channel FLAC files, and no matter which method I use to convert them into ALAC (either m4a or AIFF), iTunes can't add them to my library. ITunes can't import 24-bit Multichannel Apple Lossless (ALAC) m4a files.
