Method for Decoding and Encoding a Downmix Matrix Method for Presenting Audio Content Encoder and Decoder for a Downmix Matrix Audio Encoder and Audio Decoder

摘要

A method for decoding a downmix matrix 306 for mapping a plurality of input channels 300 of audio content to a plurality of output channels 302 is described wherein the input and output channels 300, Where the downmix matrix 306 is associated with the symmetry of the speaker pairs S ₁ -S ₉ of the plurality of input channels 300 and the plurality of output channels 302 by using the symmetry of the speaker pairs (S ₁₀ -S ₁₁ ). The encoded information representing the encoded downmix matrix 306 is received and decoded to obtain a decoded downmix matrix 306. [
