Yes thanks found a helpful site and got that far just after posting but I found 
the info on number of channels online not in the ffmpeg manual. I wasn't even 
sure what to look for so couldn't search the manual with a direct query.

I'm trying to do 7.0 but it's generating 6.1. I'll keep looking for the channel 
configuration instruction too i guess. I could maybe add a blank LFE if I knew 
the syntax. Syntax seems different for avlib than for ffmpeg and amerge is an 
avlib function apparently?
Sorry really new at this av processing. Thanks again for the tip. I'll keep 
looking. Getting there.

It does not parses them all.
Read manual and you will notice that amerge needs option that set
number of inputs.
