IneoQuest Announces VeriFrame Distributed Video Verification Technology

IneoQuest Technologies has introduced the VeriFrame, a new video content verification technology. Incorporated into IneoQuest's new iCMS (video content management software) and Cricket FrameGrabber hardware probes, VeriFrame's distributed video verification technology empowers telecom, cable and satellite operators, content providers, broadcasters and equipment manufacturers to efficiently capture, monitor, audit and verify baseband content -- validating the subscriber experience.

The conversion from analog to digital video distribution creates content verification challenges for video service providers and equipment manufacturers. These challenges include validating baseband video and audio quality 24/7, as well as auditing when, where and how content is played. Until the development of VeriFrame distributed video verification technology, there has been a lack of a cost-effective method for verifying baseband video and audio content -- as a subscriber experiences it in the home. Existing solutions fail to adequately meet these key requirements, forcing many providers to engineer their own often cumbersome workarounds.

About VeriFrame

VeriFrame is a baseband content monitoring and auditing technology that delivers both real-time and historical metrics and is ideal for use with a variety of solutions including ad insertion (e.g., splice performance and ad auditing) and distributed video verification where generic remote consumer video viewing products are typically used. VeriFrame enables video providers, manufacturers and broadcasters to automatically verify video and audio content -- frame by frame, detect black screen, luminance levels and freeze frame, and monitor audio levels. Additionally, VeriFrame provides an industry-unique mosaic view of the video thumbnails for immediate visual confidence monitoring and program playout verification. Leveraging a powerful database architecture, VeriFrame also enables efficient retrieval and filter navigation of all monitored and archived video and audio information with thumbnail references for post analysis trending and performance tracking.
