The MSA Series’ multi-source capability means that engineers can analyse many transport streams at once, including IP, RF and ASI encoded video signals
Loudness monitoring for MSA
By Melanie Dayasena-Lowe Harris Broadcast
BRINGING SEVERAL new Videotek test and measurement products and enhancements to NAB, Harris Broadcast is injecting loudness monitoring and enhanced multi-image display capabilities into its MSA Series of multi-source analysis software products, enabling more test and measurement functionality in the compressed domain. Harris Broadcast offers its MSA Series for full testing of compressed video conformance, audio levels and data services of over-the-air broadcast, cable, satellite and IPTV signals. Its multi-source capability means that engineers can analyse many transport streams at once, including IP, RF and ASI encoded video signals. The company is demonstrating how engineers can simultaneously test and monitor multiple
transport streams in various display configurations. For example, users can monitor the four most critical signals in quad-split configurations while ‘shadow testing’ other signals in the background — with the ability to quickly bring different signals to the forefront.
Harris Broadcast introduces two new Videotek products at the show. This includes the VSG-4TSG test signal generator, suitable for confirming video and audio integrity through 3G/HD/SD/composite test generation; and the DL-870 video legaliser to evaluate and correct 3G/HD/SD signal formats. The company has also enriched its NetGain business intelligence and analytics media software with new tools to help executives, sales teams and other business-related operations improve advertising strategies and consumer reach.
