Real-Time Automated Broadcast Quality Control

Continuous video and audio integrity verification before and during transmission.

Automated QC workstation inspecting playout outputs and incoming media files for compliance with international broadcast standards. Flags technical anomalies before they reach transmission air.

Real-time compliance validation:Simultaneous automated audio and video checking across all channels

Configurable alarm severity:Tiered alert profiles (Info, Warning, Error, Critical) with audible chimes

Automated PDF/XML certification:Export formal compliance certificates for regulatory broadcast submissions

Live stream probe logging:Continuous timestamped telemetry records for engineering post-mortems

Fast Probe & Deep Media Decode Conformance

Active preset validation for broadcast raster, framerates, and codecs.

Fast probe metadata extraction and deep video decode stream analysis. Inspects video raster (1920x1080), framerate (24-60 fps), and codec specifications (h264, hevc, mpeg2video, dnxhd, prores) to guarantee playout compatibility.

Deep frame decode analysis:Frame-by-frame decoding detecting macroblocking, freeze, and stream corruptions

Fast container probe verification:Sub-second validation of container metadata, track counts, and framerate

Shared broadcast presets:Uniform QC rule profiles linked directly across master Kashtrix Settings

Multi-codec conformance testing:Validation of ProRes, Avid DNxHD, Sony XDCAM MXF, HEVC, and H.264

EBU R128 & ITU BS.1770 Loudness Normalization

Eliminate commercial loudness spikes and comply with broadcast regulations.

Real-time compliance meters measuring Integrated Loudness (LUFS), Short-Term Loudness, Momentary Loudness, and True Peak (dBTP). Prevents television commercial volume spikes and regulatory fines.

Integrated loudness compliance:EBU R128 (-23 LUFS) and CALM Act (-24 LKFS) target enforcement

True-peak limiter guard:Intersample peak detection preventing digital clipping on D/A convertors

Loudness regulatory audit logs:Historical loudness logs proving compliance to broadcast authorities

Multi-channel audio phase meters:Stereo correlation meters identifying out-of-phase acoustic cancellations

Audio Loudness Compliance (EBU R128 & ITU-R BS.1770)

Measures Integrated Loudness (LUFS), Loudness Range (LRA), and Maximum True Peak (dBTP).

Generates correction parameters or auto-normalizes files to target loudness standards (e.g., -23 LUFS / -24 LUFS).

Video Anomaly Detection

Black frame detection (sustained black thresholds).

Freeze frame detection (static video feed detection).

Letterbox / Pillarbox aspect ratio violation detection.

Digital video artifact and macroblock detection.

Container & Stream Syntax Validation

Verifies audio/video sync offsets, dropped frames, corrupt GOPs, and missing audio tracks.
