     4.4 Definition of Opus sample

-            An Opus sample is exactly one Opus packet.
+            An Opus sample is exactly one Opus packet for each of different Opus bitstreams. Due to support more than
+            two channels, an Opus sample can contain frames from multiple Opus bitstreams but all Opus packets shall
+            share with the total of frame sizes in a single Opus sample.
             In this specification, 'sample' means 'Opus sample' except for 'padded samples', 'priming samples', 'valid
             sample' and 'sample-accurate', i.e. 'sample' is 'sample' in the term defined in ISO/IEC 14496-12 [1].
-            TODO: If an Opus packet consists of multiple Opus streams, it can be splitted into individual streams and
-                  reconstructed into new Opus packets as long as every Opus stream has the same total duration in each

                   The solution may be achieved by using track references and new channel mapping/layout indications.
                   Or should we forbid splitting into multiple tracks to avoid more complex implementations?
                   Or just use channel mapping other than what the existing Opus Specific Box does, such as bit masks?
