How to Download 5.1 videos without re-encoding?
I've found some videos on youtube that are multichannel, the pulseeffects show that they are being played as 6 channel. Upon downloading them when i check them via ffprobe i can see that they have been re-encoded as stereo. So I used -k argument and downloaded them to check if they are being downloaded in 6 channel and upon merging are being re-encoded but the audio track which was downloaded is in the stereo only.

Nothing is reencoded by default.
