| TAG Video Systems, the leader in software-based IP end-to-end workflow monitoring, deep probing, and real-time visualization, is presenting its Realtime Media Performance platform at NAB SHOW New York 2024 enhanced with numerous award-winning technologies. The platform will be demonstrated with capabilities designed to increase user confidence, maximize data utilization, simplify troubleshooting, and improve efficiency. These highlights and more can be seen at TAG’s Booth #659. QC Elements NAB SHOW New York marks the introduction of TAG’s QC Elements (Quality Control Elements) to the North American broadcast community. Designed to enrich visualization and simplify troubleshooting, QC Elements enables a vast array of elements to be arranged on a multiviewer tile for a comprehensive view of critical technical data, bringing engineers a built-in quality control station within the display. Engineers can tailor each tile with details on codecs, frame rates, resolutions, closed captions, audio channels, transport streams, and more. This powerful tool expedites the identification and analysis of technical issues, helping users achieve a high-level of IP workflow stability, ensuring seamless quality of service at scale and a flawless viewer experience. Operator ConsoleTAG will also present its award-winning Operator Console, an intuitive touch panel console. Operator Console provides a live, interactive view of the multiviewer output on any touch-controlled device bringing a simplified, focused, and intuitive approach to manage TAG multiviewers at any scale. Operators can effortlessly switch between layouts, modify tile content, and isolate audio sources for verification. Additionally, they gain instant access to pre-defined and customizable configurations, simplifying complex workflows, even in the most demanding operational environments, allowing operators to focus on creativity and workflow integrity. Language DetectionLanguage Detection, another multi-award-winning feature, is a revolutionary innovation that transforms how operators ensure quality and compliance across large scale operations with multiple closed captions and language subtitles. This innovative technology not only identifies the subtitles’ language but also calculates and analyzes quality based on language-specific dictionaries. Language Detection’s cutting-edge automation eliminates the manual labor traditionally associated with language identification, minimizing the risk of human error, and freeing up operators to focus on more strategic tasks. SSIM and QoS ToolsTAG will show its Realtime Media Performance platform integrated with the Structural Similarity Index Measure (SSIM) with advanced Quality of Service (QoS) tools to provide a comprehensive, real-time video quality assessment. This award-winning combination ensures that objective quality assessments and technical performance metrics are continuously monitored, guaranteeing an exceptional viewer experience. By leveraging TAG’s Content Matching technology, SSIM, and QoS features work together to detect, alarm, and report quality issues in real-time, ensuring seamless video delivery. Advanced User ManagementTAG’s new advanced user management (RBAC – Role Based Access Control) functionality defines and assigns roles within the organization for strengthened security and reduced human error. Knowing that access is limited by specific outputs, sources, or networks brings an additional measure of confidence to those managing multiple networks under the same TAG Media Control System (MCS). Group LensNew York broadcasters will get a preview of Group Lens, a functionality designed to simplify the monitoring and troubleshooting of massive media networks. Group Lens is an interactive visual tool that provides an at-a-glance overview of the entire network’s status on a single screen. The intuitive tile-based display combined with intuitive color coding to instantly highlight potential issues enabling quick root cause analysis and efficient troubleshooting for faster issue resolution preventing minor glitches from escalating into major disruptions. | |
