  • Surround Sound Processed by Opus Codec: a Perceptual Quality Assessment
    28. Konferenz Elektronische Sprachsignalverarbeitung 2017, Saarbrücken SURROUND SOUND PROCESSED BY OPUS CODEC: APERCEPTUAL QUALITY ASSESSMENT Franziska Trojahn, Martin Meszaros, Michael Maruschke and Oliver Jokisch Hochschule für Telekommunikation Leipzig, Germany [email protected] Abstract: The article describes the first perceptual quality study of 5.1 surround sound that has been processed by the Opus codec standardised by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). All listening sessions with up to five subjects took place in a slightly sound absorbing laboratory – simulating living room conditions. For the assessment we conducted a Degradation Category Rating (DCR) listening- opinion test according to ITU-T P.800 recommendation with stimuli for six channels at total bitrates between 96 kbit/s and 192 kbit/s as well as hidden references. A group of 27 naive listeners compared a total of 20 sound samples. The differences between uncompressed and degraded sound samples were rated on a five-point degradation category scale resulting in Degradation Mean Opinion Score (DMOS). The overall results show that the average quality correlates with the bitrates. The quality diverges for the individual test stimuli depending on the music characteristics. Under most circumstances, a bitrate of 128 kbit/s is sufficient to achieve acceptable quality. 1 Introduction Nowadays, a high number of different speech and audio codecs are implemented in several kinds of multimedia applications; including audio / video entertainment, broadcasting and gaming. In recent years the demand for low delay and high quality audio applications, such as remote real-time jamming and cloud gaming, has been increasing. Therefore, current research objectives do not only include close to natural speech or audio quality, but also the requirements of low bitrates and a minimum latency.

  • Configure Surround Sound on an Intel NUC Or Comptue Stick
    Surround Sound Setup Guide for NUC This guide will show the recommend method to setup surround sound through bitstreaming. Bitstreaming is the process whereby the NUC sends an un-encoded digital signal to an A/V receiver, to which the receiver will decode the signal, not the NUC, and often produces better quality sound, depending on the receiver. What is Needed: AV Receiver with HDMI or TOSLINK (SPDIF), if using optical audio Surround speakers (5.1 or 7.1) 2 HDMI cables or a TOSLINK cable (a mini DisplayPort to HDMI cable can also be used from the NUC to the Receiver) HDMI display, keyboard, mouse NUC running Windows* Media Player Classic* (https://mpc-hc.org/) 1. Download and install the latest Intel® graphics drivers (https://downloadcenter.intel.com/) 2. Connect the HDMI or mini DisplayPort cable from the NUC to an HDMI input of the AV receiver. If using TOSLINK on the NUC, connect the NUC’s TOSLINK output to a TOSLINK input on the receiver. 3. Start Windows* and download and install Media Player Classic* (MPC-HC) (http://mpc-hc.org/downloads/) 4. Open MPC-HC. On the Menu bar, click View, then Options. 5. On the left side menu tree, click on Internal Filters, then click on Video Decoder (on the bottom of the screen). 6. It’s suggested that Hardware Acceleration be used, especially if 4K content is played, choose a Hardware Acceleration option, then click OK. 7. If 4K or HEVC (h.265) content is going to be played, also select, HEVC, and UHD (4K).

  • Optimizing the Implementation of Dolby Digital Plus in Soc Designs
    White Paper Optimizing the Implementation of Dolby Digital Plus in SoC Designs Chris Cavigioli and Brett Miller, MIPS Technologies Roger Dressler and Rob Hislop, Dolby Laboratories January 2007 MIPS Technologies and Dolby Laboratories have collaborated to provide a rapid and low-risk methodology for deploying Dolby Digital Plus technology to the set-top box and HD DVD/Blu-ray Disc markets. Introduction Dolby® Digital Plus, the newest generation of Dolby Digital, the standard-setting audio technology from Dolby Laboratories, is making its way into next-generation home entertainment applications, bringing superior sound quality, more efficient audio compression, and an improved user experience to the home. Dolby Digital Plus, also known as Enhanced AC-3 (E-AC-3), was developed to address the changing requirements of two burgeoning consumer markets. For the emerging HD DVD and Blu-ray Disc optical disc players, the data compression capabilities of Dolby Digital Plus allow movie studios to combine a superior audio experience with high-definition video. The technology also enhances the latest digital TV set-top boxes (STBs), enabling broadcasters to deploy offerings with lower bit rates, reducing costs and adding flexibility and value for consumers. While there are tremendous advantages to using Dolby Digital Plus, there are also design considerations that system-on-a-chip (SoC) teams need to understand. The rigorous approval testing that is required at Dolby Laboratories before a chip or a system can use the Dolby Digital Plus logo is substantial. Working with Dolby Laboratories, MIPS Technologies has developed an optimized, tested version of Dolby Digital Plus that will run on any of its 32-bit synthesizable processor cores—significantly slashing audio subsystem development time.

  • Frequently Asked Questions Dolby Digital Plus
    Frequently Asked Questions Dolby® Digital Plus redefines the home theater surround experience for new formats like high-definition video discs. What is Dolby Digital Plus? Dolby® Digital Plus is Dolby’s new-generation multichannel audio technology developed to enhance the premium experience of high-definition media. Built on industry-standard Dolby Digital technology, Dolby Digital Plus as implemented in Blu-ray Disc™ features more channels, less compression, and higher data rates for a warmer, richer, more compelling audio experience than you get from standard-definition DVDs. What other applications are there for Dolby Digital Plus? The advanced spectral coding efficiencies of Dolby Digital Plus enable content producers to deliver high-resolution multichannel soundtracks at lower bit rates than with Dolby Digital. This makes it ideal for emerging bandwidth-critical applications including cable, IPTV, IP streaming, and satellite (DBS) and terrestrial broadcast. Dolby Digital Plus is also a preferred medium for delivering BonusView (Profile 1.1) and BD-Live™ (Profile 2.0) interactive audio content on Blu-ray Disc. Delivering higher quality and more channels at higher bit rates, plus greater efficiency at lower bit rates, Dolby Digital Plus has the flexibility to fulfill the needs of new content delivery formats for years to come. Is Dolby Digital Plus content backward-compatible? Because Dolby Digital Plus is built on core Dolby Digital technologies, content that is encoded with Dolby Digital Plus is fully compatible with the millions of existing home theaters and playback systems worldwide equipped for Dolby Digital playback. Dolby Digital Plus soundtracks are easily converted to a 640 kbps Dolby Digital signal without decoding and reencoding, for output via S/PDIF.

  • Introduction to DVD Carol Cini, U.S
    Proceedings of the 8th Annual Federal Depository Library Conference April 12 - 15, 1999 Introduction to DVD Carol Cini, U.S. Government Printing Office Washington, DC DVD started out standing for Digital Video Disc, then Digital Versatile Disc, and now it’s just plain old DVD. It is essentially a bigger and faster CD that is being promoted for entertainment purposes (movies) and some computer applications. It will eventually replace audio CDs, VHS and Beta tapes, laserdiscs, CD-ROMs, and video game cartridges as more hardware and software manufacturers support this new technology. DVDs and CDs look alike. A CD is a single solid injected molded piece of carbonate plastic that has a layer of metal to reflect data to a laser reader and coat of clear laminate for protection. DVD is the same size as a CD but consists of two solid injected molded pieces of plastic bonded together. Like CDs, DVDs have a metalized layer (requires special metalization process) and are coated with clear laminate. Unlike CD's, DVD's can have two layers per side and have 4 times as many "pits" and "lands" as a CD. There are various types of DVD, including DVD-ROM, DVD-Video, DVD-Audio, DVD-R, and DVD-RAM. The specifications for these DVD's are as follows: for prerecorded DVD's; Book A - DVD-ROM, Book B - DVD-Video, and Book C- DVD-Audio. For recordable DVD's, there is Book D - DVD-R, Book E - DVD-RAM. The official DVD specification books are available from Toshiba after signing a nondisclosure agreement and paying a $5,000 fee.
