摘要:
Apparatus and methods for generating an encoded audio bitstream, including by including program loudness metadata and audio data in the bitstream, and optionally also program boundary metadata in at least one segment (e.g., frame) of the bitstream. Other aspects are apparatus and methods for decoding such a bitstream, e.g., including by performing adaptive loudness processing of the audio data of an audio program indicated by the bitstream, or authentication and/or validation of metadata and/or audio data of such an audio program. Another aspect is an audio processing unit (e.g., an encoder, decoder, or post-processor) configured (e.g., programmed) to perform any embodiment of the method or which includes a buffer memory which stores at least one frame of an audio bitstream generated in accordance with any embodiment of the method.
摘要:
An audio processing unit, comprising a buffer memory (201) configured to store at least one frame of an encoded audio bitstream which includes audio data and a metadata container having a header and one or more metadata payloads after the header, a parser (205) coupled to the buffer memory, and an audio decoder (202) coupled to the parser. The one or more metadata payloads include dynamic range compression (DRC) metadata including DRC control values indicative of a compression profile assumed by an encoder to generate said DRC control values. The audio decoder is configured to perform dynamic range compression on decoded audio data generated by decoding said at least some of the audio data, using the DRC metadata.
摘要:
Apparatus and methods for generating or decoding an encoded audio bitstream according to AC-3 or E-AC-3 format, said bitstream carrying program information metadata, PIM, within a skipfield, the addbsi or the auxdata field in addition to audio data in the bitstream. The PIM includes active channel metadata indicative of each non-silent and each silent channel of an audio program.
