I prefer files all around, but I have the ability to dump various forms of video and audio tape to disc and conform to a rough mix or camera audio. Whatever it takes to get the project done.

thanks KK! i wasn't really asking about video (sorry for not being clear), but from your explanation, i see you are talking about separate audio files. that looks like a part of the explanation i was looking for:
i was assuming that i will be taking a PT session to the dub stage, which will contain stems (say, 2 x 5.0 ambiance stems, 5.0 music stem, maybe two 5.0 sfx stems, couple a dialog stems.... all of that dry, and then 5.0 just reverb stem, and another one for music.....), so i was actually wondering how this PT session should be organized.
but maybe i shouldn't make a session at all, just bring plain audio files? is that right?
in that case, should i make 5.1 files, or (properly labeled) mono files? in the latter case, it will take an hour just to route everything
