Tuning 9 strings [video attached]


Hello
I just got my first Oud, which has 9 strings, for Christmas and was wondering what its tuning is

Please see http://youtu.be/ZozXP7IW5nQ

which you think is right: FAdgc, GAdgc, or EAdgc

______________
apart from that, I have noticed that when strumming, there is some noise (forgot the technical name for it -sorry). Is it me or the Oud? (I have to ay I am a beginner)

Thank you

The tuning is... out of tune!

Haha, sorry, couldn't resist. Welcome to the forums. That bottom string is an E.... though everything but the E seems to be out, which makes me wonder if that E was originally an E or something else.

Someone with knowledge of Bahraini ouds should be able to say what the tuning should be.
