New Release of ORBOX File-Based QC

Tecom Group welcomes a new release of ORBOX file-based quality control system. The updates added extra tools to automate the verification of media files.

Built-in Windows media player has always been one of the most important and sought-after modules of the system.

The player allows the system engineer to view the defected video fragments in the file, to confirm or reject the error, and to decide whether the file can be sent on air or it needs to be fixed.

New media player features the ability to edit or exclude incorrectly marked segments — timecodes of the beginning and the end of the defected video fragment — from the results.

New media player can also mark the defected video segments even if the test has “Error” status.

Here are some major updates for the system tests:

• improved Black Frames test;
• updated Blockiness test;
• new timecode continuity test for XDCAM HD 422 files in MXF OP1a container;
• improved test for real video bitrate;
• improved algorithm of Flash Frames test;
• updated TS container errors test.

On top of that an online help with a description of the tests and their settings has been introduced to the system’s interface. The system's performance and stability have been hugely improved.

Tecom Group continues to improve ORBOX system and make it a perfect suit for broadcasters and content providers by helping them to ensure the highest quality of media content.
