Audio Track 'Autoname' Defaults to "Surround" in 1.11.0

[Excessiive]

Problem Description

This might be pretty specific but something I've only just started experiencing in 1.11.0 on Windows 11.

Any and all passthru tracks when Autoname is enabled get named "Surround" even if they are stereo or mono tracks. The only way it properly detects a track as one of the two other options of "Stereo" and "Mono" is if you transcode the audio to another Mixdown using that dropdown menu. For example, DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0 to AC-3 Surround, it'll say Surround. If you change Mixdown to Stereo it'll rename it to Stereo, and the same goes for Mono renaming it to Mono. However if I were to just passthru the track with Autonaming enabled, it'll rename it "Surround" despite being 2.0.

I already have the tracks named appropriately prior to import but it appears the names Surround, Stereo and Mono are "protected" or "reserved" for lack of a better term (sorry I'm not a programmer) so the Passthru option just leaves it blank when Autoname is left off.

Is there any way to reverse this change so it allows "Stereo" and "Mono" to be detected for autonaming again or to allow "Stereo" and "Mono" to be passed through as audio track names when Autonaming is left off?

Thanks for all the hard work on Handbrake. In my few years this is the only issue I've had (besides the current .NET issue that's already being handled in the next release).

Confirmed, seeing the same issue, even when the source contains a name, recent Handbrake builds doesnt pass the original name through

Sorry for the delay but can confirm it fixed the problem of autonaming all tracks Surround.

It wouldn't be a big deal if you can't but any chance to allow Stereo / Mono as track names to be passed through to allow us to use autoname 'Unnamed Only' and not have those left blank when passed through? Because it detects that there's a name hence why it doesn't autoname them but it refuses to allow them as track names and they end up blank. If that causes a break in functionality though I'd understand.

I guess it could if the track is passed through, because the mix down doesn't change. Currently it doesn't preserve the various "Stereo" and similar names, because it could cause the track to be misnamed if the mix down changes (not that naming a track Stereo or similar is much of use in the first place, when the channels number info is already stored somewhere else).

I see. Thank you for the help!
