Abstract:
A method for mapping a plurality of input channels of an input channel configuration to output channels of an output channel configuration includes providing a set of rules associated with each input channel of the plurality of input channels, wherein the rules define different mappings between the associated input channel and a set of output channels. For each input channel of the plurality of input channels, a rule associated with the input channel is accessed, determination is made whether the set of output channels defined in the accessed rule is present in the output channel configuration, and the accessed rule is selected if the set of output channels defined in the accessed rule is present in the output channel configuration. The input channels are mapped to the output channels according to the selected rule.

Claim (Index 1):
Method for mapping a plurality of input audio loudspeaker channels of an input audio loudspeaker channel configuration to output audio loudspeaker channels of an output audio loudspeaker channel configuration, the method comprising:\n providing a set of rules associated with each input audio loudspeaker channel of the plurality of input audio loudspeaker channels, each rule in the set of rules defines a different mapping between the associated input audio loudspeaker channel and a set of output audio loudspeaker channels, wherein the rules in the sets of rules are prioritized, wherein higher prioritized rules are selected with higher preference over lower prioritized rules; for each input audio loudspeaker channel of the plurality of input audio loudspeaker channels,\n accessing a rule associated with the input audio loudspeaker channel, determining whether the set of output audio loudspeaker channels defined in the accessed rule is present in the output audio loudspeaker channel configuration, and selecting the accessed rule if the set of output audio loudspeaker channels defined in the accessed rule is present in the output audio loudspeaker channel configuration; and \n mapping the input audio loudspeaker channels to the output audio loudspeaker channels according to the selected rule.
