Content Monitoring for SDI, Files and IP using Algorithmic-based Media Signatures

John Shike, Geoff Bowen

Unique signatures are used to provide a content monitoring solution that may be deployed in SDI or IP-streaming broadcast environments. The signatures can be stored and compared at every stage of the production chain to provide automatic checking and verification of video and audio streams—allowing for a fully automated business model. Various aspects are handled including identification of correct media, track mapping, lip-sync, logo assurance, and other essential data. The solution is resilient to format, frame-rate and aspect ratio conversions and encode/decode processes and allows monitoring of the content delivered to the end customer. In order to provide true monitoring by exception, the solution responds reliably and rapidly to changing material and content.
