IneoQuest announces the development of VeriFrame, a new baseband content verification technology. Comprised of IneoQuest’s new iCMS (content management software) and Cricket FrameGrabber hardware probes, VeriFrame’s distributed video verification technology empowers telecom, cable and satellite operators, content providers, network equipment manufacturers and broadcasters to efficiently capture, monitor, audit and verify baseband content to validate the subscriber experience.

The conversion from analog to digital video distribution creates challenges for Video service providers and equipment manufacturers needing to verify baseband content. These challenges include not only validating the baseband video and audio quality 24/7, but also the auditing of when, where and how content played. Until the development of VeriFrame distributed video verification technology, there has been a lack of a cost-efficient method of verifying baseband video and audio content—as a subscriber would experience it. Existing solutions fail to adequately meet key requirements, forcing many providers to engineer their own expensive workarounds.

About VeriFrame

VeriFrame is the only technology that can be leveraged into multiple solutions including baseband content monitoring, distributed program verification, test and measurement and ad insertion auditing. VeriFrame fills the market requirements of low cost of implementation and a practical method of archiving video and audio content for post analysis and confidence monitoring.

As a baseband content monitoring and auditing solution, VeriFrame technology automatically verifies video and audio content, frame by frame, detecting black screen, luminance levels and freeze frame in addition to audio levels, providing real-time remote QoE metrics. Additionally, VeriFrame provides a unique video frame thumbnail mosaic display for immediate visual confidence monitoring and program playout verification. Incorporating database architecture, VeriFrame enables efficient retrieval and filter navigation of all monitored and archived thumbnail information for post- analysis trending and performance tracking..

Other VeriFrame Technology Features Include:

• Real-time monitoring and alarming on every frame
• Distributed management of multiple probe units for low cost of deployment
• Can be integrated with IneoQuest’s award-winning IQPinPoint Solution for complete, end-to-end QoS and QoE validation

IneoQuest will be exhibiting VeriFrame Technology at TelcoTV in Stand 517, November 11-13, 2008 at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, Calif.
