5. The method as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the at least one further extension encoded audio data frame comprises further encoded interchannel signal level values between further channels of the multichannel audio signal.
6. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first value is a bit value signifying core coding, and the second value is a bit value signifying extension coding.
7. An apparatus comprising at least one processor and at least one memory including computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to:
form an audio payload frame from an encoded audio data frame;
append a first marker bit at the front of the encoded audio data frame, wherein the first marker is set to a first value, and wherein the first value denotes a type of encoded audio data in the encoded audio data frame;
add an extension encoded audio data frame to the audio payload frame; and
append a second marker bit in front of the first marker bit, wherein the second marker bit is set to a second value; and wherein the second value denotes a type of encoded audio data other than the type of encoded audio data in the encoded audio data frame.
8. The apparatus as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the apparatus is further caused to:
add at least one further extension encoded audio data frame to the audio payload frame; and
append at least one further marker bit in front of the second marker bit, wherein the at least one further marker bit is set to the second value.
9. The apparatus as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the encoded audio data frame is an encoded mono channel data frame of a stereo signal, and wherein the extension encoded audio data frame comprises encoded interchannel signal level values between left and right channels of a stereo audio signal.
10. The apparatus as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the encoded audio data frame is an encoded mono channel data frame of a frame of a multichannel audio signal, and wherein the extension encoded audio data frame comprises encoded interchannel signal level values between channels of a multichannel audio signal.
11. The apparatus as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the at least one further extension encoded audio data frame comprises further encoded interchannel signal level values between further channels of the multichannel audio signal.
12. The apparatus as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the first value is a bit value signifying core coding, and the second value is a bit value signifying extension coding.
13. A computer program product embodied on a non-transitory computer readable medium, comprising computer program code configured to, when executed on at least one processor, cause an apparatus or a system to:
form an audio payload frame from an encoded audio data frame;
append a first marker bit at the front of the encoded audio data frame, wherein the first marker is set to a first value, and wherein the first value denotes a type of encoded audio data in the encoded audio data frame;
add an extension encoded audio data frame to the audio payload frame; and
append a second marker bit in front of the first marker bit, wherein the second marker bit is set to a second value; and wherein the second value denotes a type of encoded audio data other than the type of encoded audio data in the encoded audio data frame.
14. The computer program product as claimed in claim 13 , wherein the computer program code further causes the apparatus to:
add at least one further extension encoded audio data frame to the audio payload frame; and append at least one further marker bit in front of the second marker bit, wherein the at least one further marker bit is set to the second value.
