I'm trying to get quad files to play through a Roku stick and it'll only take 5.1, treats 4.0 as stereo. Would like to "convert" some to have silent center and LFE channels so the file is technically 5.1.
Efficient tool/method for adding silent center and LFE channels to quad files?

AudioMuxer will do this under the "Audio Conversion" menu, select "to 5.1 layout (remapping)" under "Remix".
I do this manually in audacity on a MacBook Pro

From New Receiver Won't Decode 4 Channel Flac Files in Foobar Bit Perfect Mode
Using Sox, in order to add silent c+lfe: sox quad.wav 51.wav remix 1 2 0 0 3 4
where quad.wav: your 4 channel file
51.wav: the resulting 6 channel file
1 2 0 0 3 4: the matrix order of the channels.
The Sox way, since it is based on a Command-line tool, make it easy to do a BIG batch of files and since it is just re-writing the same file it is very fast.
