Adoption Around the World

The MPEG-H Audio System is based on the MPEG-H 3D Audio standard from ISO/IEC MPEG, the international standards group responsible for many global media standards, which makes it an accessible and future-proof technology. In South Korea it is on air 24/7, since the country launched their UHD service based on ATSC 3.0 in 2017. In Brazil, MPEG-H Audio serves millions of households around the clock and has been selected as the sole mandatory audio system for the upcoming next-generation DTV+ broadcast service.

MPEG-H Audio is included in the ATSC, DVB, TTA (Korean) and SBTVD (Brazilian) TV standards and the sole audio system in the world’s first terrestrial UHD TV service in South Korea. It was selected as audio codec for the upcoming advanced ISDB broadcast system in Japan.
