On codec-independent audio code points

Stefan Doehla, Max Neuendorf, Stephan Schreiner

The contribution notes aspects of an audio program that are independent of coding algorithm and seeks to describe these aspects in a new standard that can be referenced by new and even existing MPEG standards. Examples of such aspects are:

• 
  Loudspeaker configurations
  
• 
  Program downmix gain factors
  
• 
  Dialog or Program loudness
  
• 
  Program Dynamic range
  

The Chair welcomes Audio experts to review the document and consider if additional technical detail is needed.
