DVBMonitor web dashboard monitoring transport streams and services

DVBMonitor is 24/7 monitoring software for many DVB, ATSC, IP and OTT transport streams at once, including HLS, MPEG-DASH, SRT and SDI inputs. It checks ETR 290 (ETSI TR 101 290), SI/PSI/PSIP table changes, SCTE-35, video quality and loudness (ITU-R BS.1770, EBU R128) against templates, and raises alarms by SNMP and mail. For in-depth analysis of a single stream, see DVBAnalyzer; for a multiviewer wall, see DVBMosaic.

DVB Networks are getting more complex rapidly. Besides the growing amount of Services, also the varieties of components that must connect and interact in a specific way to be successful are getting beyond human perception.

All activities together are responsible for the behavior and quality of a DVB network. Thereby DVB networks evolve constantly with changes in services, parameters, devices and their firmware releases. It can be concluded that a DVB network owner constantly needs to be aware of the quality of his DVB network!

The most reliable means to know how a DVB network performs is to continuously measure in real-time its behavior through comparison to a set of recommendations for various stream elements.

The key question which has to be answered is: What do you accept or not in your DVB network?

To ensure that all DVB signals meet the customer requirements, constant real-time compliancy checks are needed.
