Abstract: There is disclosed inter alia a method for rendering a virtual reality audio scene comprising: receiving information defining a limited area audio scene within the virtual reality audio scene (301), wherein the limited area audio scene defines a sub space of the virtual reality audio scene (304), wherein the information defines the limited area audio scene by defining an extent a user can move within the virtual audio scene; determining if the movement of the user within the limited area audio scene meets a condition of an audio scene change (302); and processing the audio scene change when the movement of the user within the limited area audio scene meets the condition of an audio scene change (306).

Abstract: The present invention provides an arrangement, e.g. a method, an apparatus and a computer program. The arrangement comprises obtaining information indicative of spatial positions of one or more sound sources within an audio image of a composite audio signal, obtaining information indicative of the types of the one or more sound sources, determining, for each of the one or more sound sources, a position in a display of the apparatus indicative of the spatial position of the sound source and causing an apparatus to display an item representing the sound source in the determined position in the display, wherein the item representing the sound source is determined on basis of the type of the sound source.

Abstract: A method for controlling capturing of multimedia content, the method comprising: capturing multimedia content by an apparatus, said multimedia content comprising at least an audio signal and a video signal; obtaining control information based on at least either of said audio signal or video signal; controlling pre-processing of the audio signal based on the control information obtained from the video signal; and/or controlling pre-processing of the video signal based on the control information obtained from the audio signal.

Abstract: Encoding audio signals for Discontinuous with selecting an encoding mode for encoding the signal categorizing the signal into active segments having voice activity and non-active segments having substantially no voice activity by using categorization parameters depending on the quality of the selected encoding mode and encoding at least the active segments using the selected encoding mode that for a low quality encoding produce a lower number of “active” temporal section detections than for a high quality encoding mode, with comfort noise parameters producing less contrast from background noise for low quality encoding than for high quality modes.

Abstract: The invention relates to the coding of speech at a variable bit rate, whereby the bit rates can vary from frame to frame, and more specifically to the methods and filters used for improving the quality of the decoded speech. In the solution according to the invention the weighting factors of the postfilter are not adapted on the basis of the momentary bit rate or the bit rate used in the coding of each frame, but the weighting factors are adapted according to the average bit rate calculated on the basis of a predetermined length of time. In addition to this, the weighting factors of the postfilter are also adjusted on the basis of whether the frame in question contains a voiced speech signal, an unvoiced speech signal or background noise. At frames containing an unvoiced speech signal or background noise, postfiltering is weakened so as to avoid the distortion of the signal tone because the postfiltering is adapted to a voiced signal.
