Service providers looking for a solution for monitoring the transport quality of multicast video streams
About Net-vProbe
The Net vProbe is a scalable software solution for monitoring the transport quality of the OTT (DASH and HLS) multicast video streams. The probe can be installed on the x86 servers or virtual machines at the strategic test points on the cloud or locally. The actual allowed number of OTT and /or multicast streams is limited only by the selected physical or virtual equipment. HLS and DASH compatible measures stream throughput. Verifies HLS manifest correctness and verifies DASH sidx files correctness. Monitors all profiles simultaneously, throughput over time histograms allow independent analysis of each profile. Allows around-the-clock round-robin monitoring for large numbers of streams. Verifies and reports HTTP and detects HTTP errors. Dynamic generation of HTTP requests, the probe behaves as OTT client/player. Video decoding and thumbnail presentation. Buffer fill percentage. Stream transport quality factor S.

Mividi
Mividi IP Video Monitoring System (TSM100) is an ideal choice for monitoring video QoS of IPTV services. In general, IPTV service providers acquire video content from multiple sources, including satellite, fiber optical cable, terrestrial broadcast, as well as locally generated videos. The source streams may be decoded and re-encoded to satisfy their bandwidth allocation needs and meet the specification of customers’ receiving devices. Therefore, it is common that hundreds of programs and many different transport streams are being processed in service providers’ head-ends. Additional complexity may be added in order to process advertisement insertion and provide EPG information. In order to provide their customers with video services with the best possible quality, service providers need to actively monitor their services at multiple points where streams are processed.
