Abstract:
A codec allowing for switching between different coding modes is improved by, responsive to a switching instance, performing temporal smoothing and/or blending at a respective transition.

Claim (Index 14):
Decoder according to  claim 3 , wherein the decoder is configured to perform the temporal smoothing and/or blending at the switching instance by applying a fade-in or fade-out scaling function and to, if a subsequent switching instance occurs during the fade-in or fade-out scaling function, apply, again, a fade-in or fade-out scaling function to a high-frequency spectral band so as to perform temporal smoothing and/or blending at the subsequent switching instance, with setting a starting point of applying the fade-in or fade-out scaling function from the subsequent switching instance on such that the fade-in or fade-out scaling function applied at the subsequent switching instance is, at the starting point, a function value nearest to a function value assumed by the fade-in or fade-out scaling function when being applied at the switching instance, at the time of occurrance of the subsequent switching instance.
