Overview:
The Vela ArgoNavis line of Multi-Viewer & Monitoring systems are designed to simplify the process of monitoring, verifying, and logging critical aspects of delivered content in real time. Providing critical information on video, audio, and ancillary data necessary to ensure regulatory compliance and data integrity. The Vela Multi-Viewer & Monitoring system allows operators to monitor video programs within a Multi Program Transport Stream or separate Single Program Transport Streams in real time.
Up to twelve channels of audio in up to two audio programs can be monitored per video channel with live, real time amplitude and LKFS loudness measurements provided for each video source for confidence monitoring and CALM Act compliance. LKFS measurements are date and time stamped and logged up to every 500 msecs for proof of compliance. Decode, monitor, and log various types of MPEG data including PSIP data, and 608 and 708 closed captions in real time for quality assurance and compliance. Easily create and edit video log files for compliance and advertising verification.

Product Features
Real Time Viewing
|
Real time viewing of hundreds of video programs with twelve channels of audio per stream.
|
Monitoring
|
Configure thresholds for audio amplitude levels, audio LKFS values, closed captioning, MPEG data, black frames, and freeze frames, and Monitor PSIP data.
|
Automatic Alerts
|
Automatically send email alerts to operators, engineers, and managers when monitored parameters exceed thresholds. Automatically take a ‘snapshot’ image of the video, audio, MPEG, and other monitored parameters on an alarm or alert.
|
Searchable Database
|
Easily searchable database to recall alerts, alarms, Closed Captioning text, and Loudness measurements.
|
Video As Run Files
|
Easily create and edit video log files for compliance and advertising verification.
|
Alarms Logging
|
Create a daily log of the pass/fail state of all monitored parameters with all events date and time stamped.
|
LKFS Logging
|
Log date and time stamped instantaneous and average LKFS measurements every 500 msecs. Logs are organized by date allowing for easy retrieval of data when necessary. Plenty of storage, with enough room for years of compliance logs.
|
Closed Captioning Logging
|
Log date and time stamped decoded 608, 608 embedded, and 708 Closed Captioning for proof of compliance and record keeping. As in all other logs, the Closed Captioning logs are organized by date for quick and easy retrieval of data when necessary.
|
Graphs
|
Easily graph LKFS values using the exported log file CSV format in the spreadsheet application of your choice. Insert upper limits to quickly and efficiently demonstrate compliance in a graphical format.
|
Compliance
|
Provide proof of Closed Captioning, LKFS, and PSIP compliance using log files, graphs, and snapshot tools provided by the Vela monitoring system.
