Quality Control SystemThe Quality Control System (QCS), our automated quality control engine, allows customers to add automated and scalable video verification processes to their transcoding farm. QCS analyzes each and every file to help identify possibly problematic files both before and after the transcode process. This leads to a much more efficient QC process for file-based workflows by focusing the task down to only files with potential problems. As an add-on to Workflow System (WFS) and ProMedia Carbon (formerly Carbon Coder), QCS is embedded into the transcoding workflow providing the most efficient and scalable method for assessment and verification of video assets by monitoring every step in the workflow. WFS enables enterprise transcoding solutions with maximum flexibility, scalability and cross-vendor interoperability. Key FeaturesStreamlined Integration Fully integrated with WFS and ProMedia Carbon. Problematic File Identification Out of the thousands of files being created by a transcoding farm per week, this software analyzes each and every one to help identify possibly problematic files both before and after the transcode process. This leads to a much more efficient QC process for file-based workflows by focusing the task down to only files with potential problems. Comprehensive Checks: Video Properties Audio Properties Video Quality Standards Compliance Metadata Interactive Quality Review Tool The interactive quality review tool included with QCS takes video and audio problem identification to the next level. The interactive timeline-based review tool takes you to the exact place in the file with the problem, shows a full description of the problem, and allows you to see a split screen view of before and after the transcode. Finally, the interactive quality review tool allows a QC engineer to go problem by problem through a single file, comment on each and every one individually, and ultimately decide to allow the file to pass or go back to be modified again. Full Reporting QCS leverages the database in WFS to record all data on which reports can be run. Additionally, QCS provides detailed PDF reporting for every asset. |
