MPEG-2 Video Validation Module provides validation of MPEG-2 video elementary streams, according to the ISO/IEC 13818-2 standard. The MPEG-2 video validation process examines and validates the internal streams structures and detects streams video frames decoding errors. The MPEG-2 video validation module can also detect changes in the common stream parameters. Additionally there is a set of Informational Reports, which deliver more detailed information about the file being examined, such as the video stream parameters, decoded frames count, etc. .
Each MPEG-2 video check can be disabled or enabled or set to another report type, such as Info, Warning or Error. The solution can be applied in wide variety of workflows and with many container format deviations due to its flexibility and customization ability. The validation report output can be exported into XML report file, containing the full report information in standard XML format. This allows easy integration of the solution with any digital media workflow and further processing of the report information with any third party systems.
The MPEG-2 video validation process is faster than the real-time decoding process of the media file, thus enabling fast processing of big number of local or remote files.
The MPEG-2 Video Validation Module is available in the following products:
