At the end of subclause 14.3.2 add:

pcmDataConfig() PCM data configuration structure as defined in 28.2.
pcmDataPayload() PCM data payload structure as defined in 28.2.
mpegh3daLoudnessInfoSet() Loudness metadata structure as defined in 6.3.1.

14.4 Description of MHASPacketTypes
At the end of subclause 14.4 add:
14.4.15  PACTYP_EARCON
The MHASPacketType PACTYP_EARCON may be used to embed information about the earcons available
in the earconInfo() structure and to feed earcon info data in the form of the earconInfo() structure to
the decoder.
If the earconInfo() structure contains at least one earcon of type PCM (i.e. earconType == 5) the MHAS
stream shall contain at least one MHAS packet of type PACTYP_PCMCONFIG and at least one MHAS
packet of type PACTYP_PCMDATA.
14.4.16  PACTYP_PCMCONFIG
The MHASPacketType PACTYP_PCMCONFIG may be used to carry configuration information for PCM
payload data and to feed the PCM data configuration information in the form of the pcmDataConfig()
structure to the decoder.
If an MHASPacketType PACTYP_PCMCONFIG is present after an MHASPacketType PACTYP_EARCON,
the pcmDataConfig() structure shall be used together with the previous earconInfo() structure. If no
MHASPacketType PACTYP_EARCON is present in the stream the pcmDataConfig() structure shall be
ignored.
14.4.17  PACTYP_PCMDATA
The MHASPacketType PACTYP_PCMDATA may be used to embed PCM payload data corresponding to
the PCM signals defined in the pcmDataConfig() structure and to feed the PCM data in the form of the
pcmDataPayload() structure to the decoder.
If an MHASPacketType PACTYP_ PCMDATA is present after an MHASPacketType PACTYP_ PCMCONFIG,
the pcmDataPayload() structure shall be used together with the previous earconInfo() and
pcmDataConfig() structures. If no MHASPacketType PACTYP_EARCON and MHASPacketType
PACTYP_PCMCONFIG are present in the stream the pcmDataPayload() structure shall be ignored.

ISO/IEC 23008-3:2015/Amd 1:2019(E)
14.4.18  PACTYP_LOUDNESS
The MHASPacketType PACTYP_LOUDNESS may be used to embed loudness metadata as defined in the
mpegh3daLoudnessInfoSet() structure. If present and supported by a decoder, it shall take precedence
over the in‐stream loudness information conveyed via mpegh3daConfigExtension() as defined in Table
24.
If present, the MHASPacketType PACTYP_LOUDNESS shall follow PACTYP_MPEGH3DACFG for each
random access point and stream access point.
Updated loudness information may be available for instance after editing. The MHASPacketType
PACTYP_LOUDNESS can be used to convey the updated loudness information to the decoder without
requiring an update of the audio stream.

17.10.3.3. Semantics of the interface for object-based metadata
At the end of 17.10.3.3. add:
goa_numberOfExtensionElements Defines the number of extension elements to the GOA output
interface.
goa_extElementType Defines the type of the extension element.
goa_extElementLength Defines the length of the extension element.
goa_hasObjectDistance This flag defines if the object distance parameter is signalled
in the production metadata frame.
goa_bsObjectDistance This field describes the distance of an object. The field can
take values between 0 and 511, which maps to distance
values between 0 m and 177 km. Table AMD1.3 provides the Deleted: kilometres
mapping of goa_bsObjectDistance field to the distance.
Table AMD1.3 — Mapping of position_distance field to the distance
goa_bsObjectDistance distance
0 distance = 0 m
1 − 511 distance = 0.01 * 2^( 0.0472188798661443 * ( goa_bsObjectDistance ‐ 1 ) )

17.10.4.1 General
In subclause 17.10.4.1, replace paragraph 8 with:
If a channel output interface is provided by an implementation, the following metadata shall be
provided via the interface to be evaluated by possible external renderers:
— Number of channels;
— Number of valid PCM samples for the current frame;
— elementIDs for the referenced audio channels;
— Channel configuration;
— “fixed position” flag;
— Static group priority;
— Downmix matrix elements, if transmitted and matching the selected Reproduction Layout
(according to 10.3.1);

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical
Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that
are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through
technical committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of
technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other
international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also
take part in the work.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the

14.4 Description of MHASPacketTypes
At the end of subclause 14.4 add:
14.4.15  PACTYP_EARCON
The MHASPacketType PACTYP_EARCON may be used to embed information about the earcons available
in the earconInfo() structure and to feed earcon info data in the form of the earconInfo() structure to
the decoder.
If the earconInfo() structure contains at least one earcon of type PCM (i.e. earconType == 5) the MHAS
stream shall contain at least one MHAS packet of type PACTYP_PCMCONFIG and at least one MHAS
packet of type PACTYP_PCMDATA.
14.4.16  PACTYP_PCMCONFIG
The MHASPacketType PACTYP_PCMCONFIG may be used to carry configuration information for PCM
payload data and to feed the PCM data configuration information in the form of the pcmDataConfig()
structure to the decoder.
If an MHASPacketType PACTYP_PCMCONFIG is present after an MHASPacketType PACTYP_EARCON,
the pcmDataConfig() structure shall be used together with the previous earconInfo() structure. If no
MHASPacketType PACTYP_EARCON is present in the stream the pcmDataConfig() structure shall be
ignored.
14.4.17  PACTYP_PCMDATA
The MHASPacketType PACTYP_PCMDATA may be used to embed PCM payload data corresponding to
the PCM signals defined in the pcmDataConfig() structure and to feed the PCM data in the form of the
pcmDataPayload() structure to the decoder.
If an MHASPacketType PACTYP_ PCMDATA is present after an MHASPacketType PACTYP_ PCMCONFIG,
the pcmDataPayload() structure shall be used together with the previous earconInfo() and
pcmDataConfig() structures. If no MHASPacketType PACTYP_EARCON and MHASPacketType PACTYP_
PCMCONFIG are present in the stream the pcmDataPayload() structure shall be ignored.
14.4.18  PACTYP_LOUDNESS
The MHASPacketType PACTYP_LOUDNESS may be used to embed loudness metadata as defined in
the mpegh3daLoudnessInfoSet() structure. If present and supported by a decoder, it shall take
precedence over the in-stream loudness information conveyed via mpegh3daConfigExtension() as
defined in Table 24.
If present, the MHASPacketType PACTYP_LOUDNESS shall follow PACTYP_MPEGH3DACFG for each
random access point and stream access point.
Updated loudness information may be available for instance after editing. The MHASPacketType
PACTYP_LOUDNESS can be used to convey the updated loudness information to the decoder without
requiring an update of the audio stream.

17.10.3.3. Semantics of the interface for object-based metadata
At the end of 17.10.3.3. add:
goa_numberOfExtensionElements Defines the number of extension elements to the GOA output
interface.
goa_extElementType Defines the type of the extension element.
goa_extElementLength Defines the length of the extension element.
goa_hasObjectDistance This flag defines if the object distance parameter is signalled
in the production metadata frame.
goa_bsObjectDistance This field describes the distance of an object. The field can
take values between 0 and 511, which maps to distance
values between 0 m and 177 km. Table AMD1.3 provides the
mapping of goa_bsObjectDistance field to the distance.
Table AMD1.3 — Mapping of position_distance field to the distance
goa_bsObjectDistance distance
0 distance = 0 m
1 − 511 distance = 0.01 * 2^( 0.0472188798661443 * ( goa_bsObjectDistance - 1 ) )

17.10.4.1 General
In subclause 17.10.4.1, replace paragraph 8 with:
If a channel output interface is provided by an implementation, the following metadata shall be provided
via the interface to be evaluated by possible external renderers:
— Number of channels;
— Number of valid PCM samples for the current frame;
— elementIDs for the referenced audio channels;
— Channel configuration;
— “fixed position” flag;
— Static group priority;
— Downmix matrix elements, if transmitted and matching the selected Reproduction Layout (according
to 10.3.1);
— Production metadata.
