About Net-vProbe
The Net vProbe is a scalable software solution for monitoring the transport quality of the OTT (DASH and HLS) multicast video streams. The probe can be installed on the x86 servers or virtual machines at the strategic test points on the cloud or locally. The actual allowed number of OTT and /or multicast streams is limited only by the selected physical or virtual equipment. HLS and DASH compatible measures stream throughput. Verifies HLS manifest correctness and verifies DASH sidx files correctness. Monitors all profiles simultaneously, throughput over time histograms allow independent analysis of each profile. Allows around-the-clock round-robin monitoring for large numbers of streams. Verifies and reports HTTP and detects HTTP errors. Dynamic generation of HTTP requests, the probe behaves as OTT client/player. Video decoding and thumbnail presentation. Buffer fill percentage. Stream transport quality factor S.
