Apparatus and method for generating audio data, and apparatus and method for playing audio data
An apparatus and method for generating audio data and an apparatus and method for playing audio data may be disclosed, in which the apparatus for playing the audio data may extract a descriptor related to a multichannel audio signal from a bitstream generated by the apparatus for generating the audio data, and play the multichannel audio signal, based on the extracted descriptor, and the descriptor may include information on an audio signal included in the multichannel audio signal.
1. A method of playing audio data, the method comprising:
receiving a multi-channel audio signal related to channel audio signal and object audio signal;
identifying information for the multi-channel audio signal;
reproducing the multi-channel audio signal based on the information,
wherein the information includes:
(i) information related to the number of channels, channel label, and spatial position of channel,
(ii) information related to a distance from a center of an audio signal playing space to a position where the multi channel audio signal is played in the audio signal playing space,
(iii) information related to time and position determined based on moving of object audio signals.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the information includes at least one of sound channel, channel position, type of sound channel component object, sound-field configuration, sound-field, and sound essence.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the sound essence includes at least one of program title, name of type and content of sound essence, name of multichannel sound arrangement or configuration, and loudness value.
4. The method of claim 2 , wherein the sound field includes at least one of name of multichannel sound arrangement, total number of channel, numbers of horizontal and/or vertical channels, mapping of channel allocation, and coefficients for down-mixing.
5. The method of claim 2 , wherein the sound channel includes at least one of channel label data and channel position data.
6. The method of claim 2 , wherein the channel label includes at least one of horizontal channel label, vertical channel label, distance channel label, and object channel label.
7. The method claim 2 , wherein the channel component object includes at least one of nominal frequency range, type of channel component directivity, and moving information of the object.
8. The method of claim 2 , wherein the channel position includes at least one of spatial position data, distance position data, tolerance of spatial position, tolerance of distance position, and characteristics of channel component object.
9. Apparatus of playing audio data, the apparatus comprising:
one or more processor configured to:
receive a multi-channel audio signal related to channel audio signal and object audio signal;
identify information for the multi-channel audio signal;
reproduce the multi-channel audio signal based on the information,
wherein the information includes
(i) information related to the number of channels, channel label, and spatial position of channel,
(ii) information related to a distance from a center of an audio signal playing space to a position where the multi channel audio signal is played in the audio signal playing space,
(iii) information related to time and position determined based on moving of object audio signals.
10. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the information includes at least one of sound channel, channel position, type of sound channel component object, sound-field configuration, sound-field, and sound essence.
11. The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the sound essence includes at least one of program title, name of type and content of sound essence, name of multichannel sound arrangement or configuration, and loudness value.
12. The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the sound field includes at least one of name of multichannel sound arrangement, total number of channel, numbers of horizontal and/or vertical channels, mapping of channel allocation, and coefficients for down-mixing.
