Offering on-demand video content is a popular and value-adding service for many operators today. The service experiences high quality expectations by the end customers due to the direct costs for each view, which means that it is essential for the operator to be in control of the quality of the content.

By validating and testing the VoD content before ingesting it into the VoD system, you will be able to find problematic content before it can cause customer complaints, and by monitoring in the customers’ set-top boxes each and every VoD session can be tracked and analyzed from a quality point of view. These quality records per session can be analyzed from various perspectives, such as quality per set-top box, quality per VoD server, and quality per specific asset. Questions like “Is there a specific set-top box experiencing poor quality?”, “Is there a specific VoD server providing a lower quality compared to others?” and “Are there any problematic VoD assets?” will be possible to easily answer.
The Agama Verifier forms one half of the Agama VoD monitoring concepts by analyzing and quality assure content before ingest, with the other half being the optional VoD capabilities of the Agama Embedded Monitoring. Combining these solutions, a powerful end-to-end solution for on-demand video content can be created.
- Comprehensive VoD asset verification
- VoD asset verification work-flow integration
- End-point VoD monitoring
