Synopsys ARC Audio Dolby MS11 Decoder

Synopsys ARC® Audio Dolby® MS11 Multistream decoder software for Synopsys ARC AS211SFX and AS221BD audio processors enables decoding of audio formats required for worldwide and specific local broadcast standards that include Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby Digital, HE AAC and AAC.



Dolby MS11 supports audio description services delivered in a receiver-mix style, using two simultaneous decoders, which means that broadcasters can transmit a single mix. The Synopsys ARC Audio Dolby MS11 software is configurable as either MS10 or MS11 (which adds multi-channel output and a 5.1 PCM mixer).
