1. A method of audio object extraction from channel-based audio content comprising:
- extracting at least one video object from video content associated with the channel-based audio content;
determining information about the at least one video object, the information comprising a position of the at least one video object; and
extracting from the channel-based audio content an audio object based on the determined information, the extracting comprising determining a mixing matrix for object audio extraction based on the position of the at least one video object, the extracting being based on the determined mixing matrix, the extracted audio object being subsequently rendered as an upmixed audio signal.
