AVC/H.264 Video ES Viewer – See and Manipulate What’s Inside

H264VideoESViewerPro

AVC/H.264 Video ES Viewer Pro solution provides a structural representation of AVC/H.264 video elementary stream compliant with the ISO/IEC 14496-10 specification. The application allows the user to investigate the video sequence parameter set, picture parameter set with their extensions and inner structures. Supported are AVC/H.264 video elementary streams with, which have NAL unit separation with start code prefixes as per Annex B in the AVC specification. The solution supports basic HEX data editing of Access Units.

AVC/H.264 Video ES Viewer Pro also supports some video elementary stream manipulations, such as SEI messages removal, AUD removal and non-IDR slices removal. The Pro version also additionally supports more H.264 structures, such as Slice Header, SEI Messages, SPS Extensions and other structures in accordance to the ISO/IEC 14496-10 and the ITU-T H.264 recommendations.

Apart from the manual AVC/H.264 video stream validation provided in the AVC/H.264 Video ES Viewer Pro solution, Jongbel Media Solutions also provides automated AVC/H.264 video validation in its Media Validator solution.

Validation

The currently loaded file in AVC/H.264 Video ES Viewer Pro can be validated by selecting “Validation” from the “Tools” menu.

All stream irregularities, such as incorrect video stream structures, errors during video frames decoding or invalid header values are output as Error Report. All irregularities, which are not pointed as mandatory in the corresponding specification, but have unusual content are output as Warning Reports. 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.

Customization

Each H.264 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.
