Abstract:
The various aspects of the disclosure here enable a content creation side to control how a sound program is spatial audio rendered by a decoding side, so that an audio scene component in a metadata-specified three dimensional acoustic masking zone is not heard while another audio scene component in an un-masked zone of the sound program is heard by a listener of the playback. Other aspects are also described and claimed.
