VP21S
(Double Stimulus Video Evaluation)
The VP21S performs automatic,
real-time evaluation of SDTV video image quality.
The
VP21S achieves automated, real-time measurement
and analysis by comparing the source and the tested
video. Our patented Video DNA Technology gives
evaluation that highly correlates with subjective
testing according to ITU standards (DSCQS). Video
synchronization is done automatically by the equipment,
and analysis is done at pixel level of detail.
The VP21S is mainly used for CODEC evaluation,
QA verification and SDTV system performance improvements.
Applications
- Encoder/decoder debugging operations
- Broadcast system video quality evaluation
- Automatic dubbing quality evaluation
- Evaluations of encoding quality/performance
during DVD authoring
- Automatic evaluation of master DVD playback
