Compressed Video Compliance Checking and Analysis Software

Elementary Stream Analysis

MTS4CC Video Compliance Checker and Analyzer is a powerful PC-based software package for the deferred-time analysis of encoded video elementary streams. Supported video standards include H.264/AVC, VC-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4 Part 2, and H.263. Supported audio standards include MPEG-2 audio, AAC, and AC-3 (for playback and waveform view).

Video compression standards are complex and involve many elements which are vitally important to the efficiency and interoperability of compressed video in different applications. MTS4CC provides verification of the compliance of the stream against the compression standard, detailed analysis of the video streams, tools for debugging the stream, and fidelity comparison against the original uncompressed stream. It enables equipment and systems developers to test and bring new designs rapidly to market, and video users to test compliancy, interoperability, and performance of compression products.

  • New features in MTS4CC Version 2 include:
    • ARIB TR-B14 Compliance Testing
    • YUV Decoded Output for Baseband Video Analysis with the Tektronix PQA500 Picture Quality Analyzer
