Aufzeichnung und Wiedergabe von mehrkanaligen, digitalen Audiosignalen mit unterschiedlicher Auflösung in verschiedenen Kanälen

摘要

Methods and apparatus for recording on DVD-like recording media in which audio content is stored in a high-capacity multi-channel (e.g., six-channel) format are provided. Various channels may use various resolutions. A two-channel audio output may be derived from the multi-channel audio data stream during playback. To facilitate an accurate derivation, the mixing coefficients to be used in generating the derivation can be supplied along with the six-channel audio data.
