Thanks! Apart from letting me know how to create the AC3 from the command line if I should need to do that, it also hinted at a standard recipe for dealing with the LFE channel: Mix all the other channels into one and apply a lowpass filter with a cutoff frequency of 150Hz. I will assume that this is a good method for now and look at the results.
Depending on what your content is, it might be best to simply not encode an LFE channel at all. For music an LFE track is generally not recommended. But if you're doing an action film soundtrack or pipe organ recital, feel free :) jlc
