APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR SCREEN RELATED AUDIO OBJECT REMAPPING

摘要

An apparatus for generating loudspeaker signals is provided. The apparatus comprises an object metadata processor (110) and an object renderer (120). The object renderer (120) is configured to receive an audio object. The object metadata processor (110) is configured to receive metadata, comprising an indication on whether the audio object is screen-related, and further comprising a first position of the audio object. The object metadata processor (110) is configured to calculate a second position of the audio object depending on the first position of the audio object and depending on a size of a screen, if the audio object is indicated in the metadata as being screen-related. The object renderer (120) is configured to generate the loudspeaker signals depending on the audio object and depending on position information. The object metadata processor (110) is configured to feed the first position of the audio object as the position information into the object renderer (120), if the audio object is indicated in the metadata as being not screen-related. The object metadata processor (110) is configured to feed the second position of the audio object as the position information into the object renderer (120), if the audio object is indicated in the metadata as being screen-related.
