Client:
A New York-based American media conglomerate with operations in India choose Digital Nirvana’s broadcast monitoring and compliance logging MonitorIQ to address their challenges regarding Quality of Experience (QoE), competitive analysis, and recording off-air signals.
Overview
Network providers add SCTE messages into the video stream to mark the start and end of advertisement segments and to signal actions, such as ad insertion. Malformed SCTE message data, dropped packets during the encoding process, missing SCTE messages will result in ads not being inserted at all or the wrong add being inserted which leads to the loss of advertising revenue.
