Boost the Quality of VOD and Live Event Streaming, Linear Channels With ORION-OTT and ORION
At 2019 NAB Show New York, Interra Systems will demonstrate ORION-OTT for VOD and live event streaming and ORION for real-time content monitoring and video analysis of linear channels. ORION-OTT improves the quality of VOD content and live event streaming with thorough ABR manifest file validation, audio-video checks, and real-time alerts. Support for the latest standards in closed captions and ad insertion offers broadcasters and service providers the necessary tools for compliance and monetization.

Created for IP-based delivery infrastructures, ORION provides operations groups with a powerful yet economical monitoring and troubleshooting platform that looks at all aspects of video streams, such as QoS, QoE, closed captions, and ad-insertion verification.
Improve End-to-End Visibility, Management, and Control of Linear and ABR Services With OCM
ORION Central Manager (OCM) provides an aggregated view of linear and OTT services based on monitoring data collected by ORION and ORION-OTT. The result: unprecedented visibility and power for proactive monitoring. Service providers need to look at only one screen for alerts and QoE information on each video, ensuring fast and efficient resolution of issues. Recent enhancements to OCM include a new architecture that enables near-real-time updates, real-time status of all channels across the network, channel performance trends, and executive reports.
Simplify Any QC Workflow With BATON
Major updates to BATON further simplify and automate the QC workflow for broadcasters and service providers. A new BATON automated tool for lip sync detection and verification of audio with captions will be shown, as well as photosensitive epilepsy (PSE) testing and correction. In addition, BATON includes support for the VAST format, HDR quality checks, and setup in Amazon cloud and on-premises, as well as improved audio language and caption detection capabilities.

Integrating BATON with WINNOW, the company's new solution for content classification and identification, video service providers can more efficiently prepare content for different target markets and geographies. Powered by AI/ML technologies, WINNOW detects and tags content for violence, strong language, alcohol, guns, and more based on user-defined rules.
Assure Standards Compliance, Debugging With World-Class VEGA Media Analyzers
