Video Quality Announces Automated A/V Quality Monitoring

RTM Measures the A/V Quality, A/V Delay, and VANC Data and Alarms when the Perceived Quality Drops

Campbell, California– March 15, 2010 – Video Clarity, Inc. will unveil their new real-time monitoring system at the NAB Show in Las Vegas, Booth SU-5703, April 12-15, 2010. Head End Operators and Manufacturers use the Real-Time Monitoring (RTM) system to continuously examine their signals and monitor various points within their operations.

RTM is an Automated, Quality-of-Experience (QoE) Monitor, which measures the quality between two points. It does this after the decoder (STB) has had a chance to hide (or fix) the problems, which is exactly what the customer sees. RTM measures the Video Quality, Audio Quality, Audio Delay, Video Delay, and VANC Data. If any of these drop below a preset threshold, then an alarm is triggered and the sequences are saved. RTM saves valuable man-hours by alarming on all errors which affirms what the operator already has seen or alerts them to a potential problem which was missed.
