RTP Payload Format for AC-3 Audio

Metadata

Publisher: IETF
Doc Type: Standard
Pages: 13
Abstract: This document describes an RTP payload format for transporting audio data using the AC-3 audio compression standard. AC-3 is a high quality, multichannel audio coding system that is used for United States HDTV, DVD, cable television, satellite television and other media. The RTP payload format presented in this document includes support for data fragmentation. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
