Aspects of a method and system for a multi-standard TV audio encoder are provided. In this regard, an integrated multistandard television audio encoder may be configured to encode television audio signals using a specified television audio standard. Moreover, once configured, the multistandard television audio encoder may encode television audio signals using the specified television audio standard. Exemplary television audio standards may comprise BTSC, A2, EIA-J, and NICAM. The multistandard television audio encoder may be enabled to generate all or portions of audio signals in accordance with one or more television audio standards. The multistandard television audio encoder may be enabled to generate baseband and/or RF modulated television audio signals. Accordingly, the multistandard television audio encoder may be enabled to generate an audio portion of a composite television signal. The multistandard television audio encoder may be programmably controlled via a processor and/or a control/programming interface.
