On lines where the EDH packet is present, the audio data will be embedded up to the
point reserved for the EDH packet. If there is insufficient HANC space available, the
EDH packet is always re-inserted and the audio data packet discarded.
In the case where there is insufficient room in the HANC space to embed the selected
audio data packets, the multiplexer core will delete any arbitrary data packets. If there
is still insufficient room in the HANC space, the multiplexer core will not embed audio
data packets.
4.7.7 Audio Insertion After Video Switching Point
4.7.7.1 SD Formats
The switching lines for SD formats are defined in SMPTE RP 168 as lines 10 and 273 for
525-line based formats, and lines 6 and 319 for 625-line based formats. The audio core
does not place any audio data or control packets in the line immediately after the video
switching line. For example, with the standard switch point of line 10 for field 1 in 525,
there will be no audio data or control packets on line 11. The next packets will appear on
line 12.
4.7.7.2 HD Formats
The video switching lines for HD formats are defined in SMPTE 299M as lines 7 and 569.
The audio core does not place any audio data or control packets in the line immediately
after the video switching point. For example, with the standard switch point of line 7 for
field 1, there will be no audio data packets in line 8. The next packets will appear on line
9. The audio control packets will be multiplexed once per field, two lines after the video
switch point, on lines 9 and 571.
4.7.8 Audio Data Packets
4.7.8.1 SD Formats
Figure 4-12 shows the structure of the SD audio data packet as defined in SMPTE 272M.
Table 4-5 lists the descriptions of the audio data packet words. The audio core
automatically generates certain audio data packet words, as shown in Table 4-5.
