Video Quality Monitoring and Analysis Solutions

for OTT, IPTV & Traditional Linear TV

Whether you're a video content owner, distributor, or service provider, we can find video quality assurance solutions that work for you.

Delivering the highest quality of experience (QoE) and quality of service (QoS) to your viewing audiences is not easy. Today’s digital broadcast environment is complex, with various sources, compression formats, and integrated technologies streamed to different devices. In the perfect scenario, all these video formats, technologies, and services work together to deliver superior video quality 24x7. However, the reality is that video errors occur even under the best of circumstances. Video quality and service issues can occur at different points within the video delivery chain. These errors can range from minor errors to major, persistent defects in the video.

MiraVid provides video quality monitoring and testing solutions to help companies attain the highest quality of experience (QoE) and quality of service (QoS) for their customers. Our solutions deliver quality assurance to markets including Mobile Video, IPTV, VOD, Broadcast, Cable, Satellite, Digital Media, and Codec Development.

Key Features

Real-time Multiviewer

With full multiviewer capabilities, MiraVid couples confidence monitoring with full testing and analysis of video streams for cable, satellite, telco, IPTV, and over-the-top (OTT) services. Its customizable real-time multiviewer display of up to 100 video streams  on a single mosaics screen. On-screen video stream statistics and alarms provide you with the overall health of your services at a single glance. 

Real-time Alerting

On a typical day, Network Operators need to address a range of problems in their control room while simultaneously monitoring numerous program channels, so considerable time may elapse before a problem is noticed. Real-time alerting notifies the operator of any issues that arise, so that action can be taken to ensure minimal impact on customers. TeleSight’s comprehensive set of reporting capabilities exposes the origin of the problem and the level of impact (system, video, or audio) for faster and more efficient troubleshooting.

QoE Tests & Alarms

Being alerted of video service and quality issues is critical for Video Service Operators to troubleshoot and fix the problem quickly. 

Alarms and alerts are easy to set up based on constraints and thresholds that you defined in the system. Once an alarm is detected, such as a black and frozen video, the alarm message will appear on the Active Alarms dashboard and the video multiviewer screen. This allows for quick identification of any issues. 

QoS Test & Alarms

Being alerted of video service and quality issues is critical for Video Service Operators to quickly troubleshoot and fix the problem. 

Active Alarms are displayed in real-time. Once an alarm is detected, such as a signal loss and continuity counter errors, the alarm message will appear on the Active Alarms window and the video mosaic (multiviewer) screen. This allows for quick identification of any issues. 

Error Logging & Recording

 Alarms and error logging can be configured for a local log, SNMP, Syslog, and Email/SMS alerts (upon critical error detection). An external alarm device (buzzer, light) can be integrated to troubleshoot problems.  

The system also provides stream recording capabilities to capture and record a video stream upon error automatically or manually. Automatic stream recording enables the automatic capture of stream data before and following an error condition (in system, video or audio layers). Source data captured will be saved from 3 seconds before the error and 1 to 60 seconds after the error.

Remote Site Monitoring

The MiraVid system allows you to centrally monitor and control multiple monitoring systems within a centralized facility or across remote locations. The Operator can view the overall health of their services across each remote site and monitoring point. Status indicators highlight problems at each site and a full real-time multiviewer display and problem alert at each location.

Video Compression Analysis

The MiraVid system provides a comprehensive set of system (TR-101-290), video, audio quality tests, and additional measurements and analysis to help operators identify and efficiently troubleshoot issues.

Video conformance syntax testing and alarms detect video quality issues, including blockiness, pixelations, and video corruption problems. In addition, PSI table analysis, GOP structure picture graph, quantization graph, and bitrate charts provide the operator with further insight into how the streams are encoded and opportunities where video quality can be improved.

Off-line MPEG Analysis

The depth and reliability of testing and the speed at which errors are detected allow organizations to address these errors quickly, reducing the cost of errors.

MiraVid’s media analyzer exposes stream statistics that give digital media professionals valuable insight into the behavior of the compression algorithms, thereby accelerating modifications that need to be made. Users can then observe the effects of algorithm adjustments on bitrate and video quality by looking at a set of video stream statistics.
