Video Headend Video Quality Monitoring Solution

Background: The convergence of traditional Broadcast Television Broadcasting (DVB) services is evolving towards all Internet Protocol (IP) delivery network. In addition, the response to this evolution is the standardization of Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) architectures, such as DVB-IPTV, focusing on the delivery of continuous high-quality video services and covering the natural evolution of services such as high definition television and stereoscopic video. Nevertheless, by using existing video monitoring solution, it cannot be possible to monitor more than one live stream simultaneously without delay and for that setup need many devices. Also it is not feasible to monitor real-time video for IP Headend without storing the content. By creating a centralized monitoring environment one can able to integrate all the headend devices where the operator can identify and rectify errors based on their priority that occurred throughout the network. Methods: The proposed work provides a solution to monitor video without delay and with fewer networks. This Video Quality Monitoring (VQM) Solution deals with real time monitoring of channels effectively and efficiently with the help of network management system. Findings: This project describes the design and functionality of VQM and all streamed channel will be displayed on the video wall with specific parameters of video for subjective monitoring purpose.
