<p>According to the invention, the manipulation of audio data can be simplified, such as, for example, with relation to the combination of individual audio channels to give multi-channel audio data streams, or for the general manipulation of an audio data stream, whereby a data block is modified (56) in an audio data stream (10), divided into data blocks (10a, 10b) with determining blocks (14, 16) and data block audio data (18) such as, for example, by inclusion in, addition to, or replacement of a part thereof, itself containing a length indicator which expresses a data amount or length of the block audio data, or a data amount or length of the data block, such as to give a second audio data stream with modified data blocks. Alternatively, an audio data stream (10) with pointers in determining blocks (14, 10), which point to the determining block audio data (44, 46), allocated to the determining blocks, but distributed in various data blocks, is converted into an audio stream, whereby the determining block audio data (44, 46) are combined to give coherent determining block audio data (48). The coherent determining block audio data (48) can be contained with the corresponding determining block (14, 16) in a self-contained channel element (52a).</p> |
