With the recent emergence of IPTV services, the need to monitor video networks in order to ensure quality of experience and quality of service statistics is greater than ever. Having recognized this need, Trilithic has introduced a new solution for compressed video testing that allows real-time 24/7 monitoring of key IPTV statistics, through a PC.
FaultLine MPEG Analysis Suite allows headend technicians to identify problems with compressed video streams in cable, satellite, and IP video delivery networks. FaultLine is a simple, turnkey solution with an intuitive user interface that provides MPEG-2 transport stream monitoring in a variety of video formats.
To get started with FaultLine, simply set up user-defined alert and notification options, and the software sends an email or text message whenever a service disruption meets the specified criteria. The easy-to-read screen display shows the most important indicators of video quality and experience with easily-understood graphics.
With this MPEG analysis solution, the headend and NOC can quickly and easily determine the health of their video stream and identify the source of problems that affect subscribers’ quality experience with metrics for QoE and QoS like CC Errors, Zap Time, Jitter, Latency and Packet Loss. FaultLine supports MPEG-1, MPEG-2, H.264 and MPEG-4 part 2 video formats, and can handle simultaneous analysis of up to 1,024 video streams over 1 GB Ethernet with a capacity of over 200 channels of multicast traffic and set-top box emulation and analysis.
