Actus Digital will showcase version 9.0 of its Intelligent Monitoring Platform, including OTT StreamWatch, at CABSAT 2023. The solution is affordable and addresses OTT quality issues with new features.

At the 2023 NAB show, Actus Digital will introduce OTT StreamWatch, its new SaaS/on-prem product that provides 24/7 quality assurance, compliance logging, OTT stream monitoring, and aircheck recording of native HLS and other OTT ABR (Adaptive Bitrate) streams.

Actus Digital, the premier solutions provider for Quality Assurance (QA) alerting, compliance logging, multiviewer monitoring, broadcast analysis, and asset repurposing, will unveil its latest solutions for TV, radio and MVPD (multichannel video programming distributors) at the 2023 NAB Show. Actus v.9.0 expanded offerings address the needs of traditional broadcasters and MVPDs, and the new OTT StreamWatch, extends benefits to those creating and distributing OTT FAST/IPTV streaming channels.

Compliance logging, multiviewer and quality assurance — for both over-the-air and OTT — can be accomplished on the same affordable platform. Media companies are expanding their monitoring systems to handle both OTA and OTT to ensure the quality and compliance of content, protect the broadcaster’s brand reputation, and to stay ahead of the curve in the rapidly changing media landscape.

throughout the US and the world have found the Actus Intelligent Monitoring Platform is an amazing ‘Test and Measurement’ complement.

Actus Digital, the premier compliance logging, quality monitoring and alerting, content repurposing, and automatic and AI-based workflow solutions company, will showcase the new award-winning Actus 8.0 intelligent monitoring platform at BroadcastAsia 2022

Version 8 (V8) of Actus Digital’s
Intelligent Monitoring Platform
was selected as the 2022 Best-in-Market Compliance Logging
and Monitoring Solution.

Actus Digital, the premiere quality monitoring and alerting, compliance logging, content repurposing, and workflow solution company, will showcase the new Actus 8.0 AI-based intelligent monitoring platform during CABSAT 2022. Actus Digital’s platform was recently honored with a “Best-in-Market” award by TV Tech.

Actus RVM allows MVPDs to gain unique, real-time insights into their viewers’ quality of service (QoS), verify local ad insertion and timing, and ensure that television service operations are running smoothly. Actus RVM is based on Actus Digital’s intelligent monitoring platform, which has been successfully deployed by over 600 broadcasters, television networks, and teleport sites around the globe.

The new Actus 8.0 platform includes Actus Synchro, an enhanced recording-multiviewer with QA monitoring and compliance logging, along with support for new standards, such as ATSC 3.0, SMPTE ST 2110/2022-6/2022-7, and SRT, to address applications for TV, radio, MVPDs, and more.

There are many reasons ActusDigital now dominates Quality Monitoring and Compliance Logging… on a platform that is super effective for News, Repurpose-Editing and Publishing, and Light-MAM applications.

A compliance solution is mandatory and must support all the regulatory requirements such as closed caption, subtitles, loudness SCTE, technical alerts, multiviewers, etc. However, this is only one workflow of a much larger solution – Actus intelligent monitoring platform.

Actus continued its incredible growth in 2021, thanks to the ongoing trust and confidence of both our existing and new customers.

The next generation of Actus Digital’s platform offers simplified but sophisticated tools for multi-viewer monitoring and quality assurance of multi-rendition OTT streams and over-the-air linear content at multi-probe points in the video delivery chain.

Metadata is essential for content sharing, interaction between different workflows and for accurate content searching, as a few examples.
When additional workflows are included, beyond compliance, such as Actus content re-purposing for fast content turn-around or Actus automatic content detection, metadata is essential to find data, use data, preserve and re-use the data in the future.

In today’s word, every two different applications must be able to communicate with each other. Any
system must be able to integrate with third parties systems, and vise versa, through advanced API, to allow integrations and automatic workflows. APIs are more than technical “communication” for sharing data. Well-designed APIs provide organizations with a critical link to data and services that enable rapid innovation and open new workflows and services. This is exactly what Actus API was designed for.
