4.7.17.1 525-Line Audio Sample Distribution
As per the SMPTE ST 272 standard, the following sample distribution allows the
embedding of 16 channels (4 audio groups) of 24-bit sampled audio into the HANC of
525-line based video formats.
The sample distribution is established for Group One and then offset by one line for each
subsequent group. The sample distribution is as follows (start line is 12):
{[3](10+G),([4],[3]15)15,[4],[3](11-G),[0],[3](3+G),([4],[3]15)15,[4/3],[3]12,[4],[3](4-G),[0]}5
[#] = Number of samples / line
[4/3] = One line with either 3 or 4 samples depending on five-frame sequence
(#) = Number of times to repeat the sequence. When this # is 0, no samples are inserted
G = Audio group number from 1 to 4
{…}5 = 5-frame sequence as shown in Table 4-12:

The following tables show the audio sample distribution for each of the four audio
groups.
Each distribution has 525 lines.
Each distribution has 1602 samples or 1601 samples, based on the frame number in the
five-frame sequence.
When 1602 samples are required in a frame, the [4/3] term represents a line with four
samples.
When 1601 samples are required in a frame, the [4/3] term represents a line with three
samples.
