It seems safer to me to use the actual number of channels than the
channel layout.

(Or to say it differently: It is most likely a bug that FFmpeg tries
hard to guess a
channel format for every input, there are use cases where channels do not have a
layout and no part of the transcoding chain needs one. Please don't
rely on this bug.)

I would suggest to split the purely cosmetic changes that move code or
definitions
around from actual changes to the code.

Thank you, Carl Eugen
