Digital audio - Interface for non-linear PCM encoded audio bitstreams applying IEC 60958 - Part 2: Burst-info

IEC 61937-2:2021 specifies the digital audio interface to convey non-linear PCM encoded audio bitstreams applying IEC 60958-1 and IEC 60958-3. This document specifies burst-info, which defines content information about the data contained in the burst-payload. IEC 61937-2:2021 cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2007, Amendment 1:2011 and Amendment 2:2018. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:a) new audio data-types of MPEG-D USAC, ACX, ACX HBR2, ACX HBR4 and ACX HBR8 have been added;b) extended data-type field in Pe has been activated.

Digital audio - Interface for non-linear PCM encoded audio bitstreams applying IEC 60958 - Part 2: Burst-info

IEC 61937-2:2007 specifies the digital audio interface to convey non-linear PCM encoded audio bitstreams applying IEC 60958-1 and IEC 60958-3. This standard specifies burst-info which defines content information about the data contained in the burst payload. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2000. This edition contains the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) New audio data-types of enhanced AC-3 data, MPEG-2 AAC low sampling frequency, MPEG-4 AAC, DTS type IV, ATRAC-X, WMA professional and MAT are added. b) Data-type field in Pc is expanded from bit 0-4 to 0-6. This bilingual version corresponds to the monolingual English version, published in 2007-05.
