Dolby Metadata Guide

Dolby® Digital and Dolby E are both data-rate reduction technologies that use metadata. Metadata is carried in the Dolby Digital or Dolby E bitstream, describing the encoded audio and conveying information that precisely controls downstream encoders and decoders. In normal operation, the encoded audio and metadata are carried together as a data stream on two regular digital audio channels (AES3, AES/EBU, or S/PDIF). Metadata can also be carried as a serial data stream between Dolby E and/or Dolby Digital equipment. Metadata allows content providers unprecedented control over how original program material is reproduced in the home.
