WatchiTV Portable: IPTV Expert Analysis Application

Key Applications

Key Features

Stream recording - triggered automatically via degrading quality by packet loss/PCR jitter.CSV file format output, for easy report creation.Real time IP/MPEG Traffic statistics in graphics with operation command detection, including DRM security access key exchange.

The IPTV protocol stack is based on HTTP, RTSP, IGMP as well as MPEG-2 Transport Stream protocols. WatchiTVprovides a user friendly interface, and identifies the key performance index in real time.

WatchiTV is the first complete solution in the industry, to run on a notebook PC emulating the IPTV client, for verification of VoD channel request as well as EPG changing delay.

Unlike data transfers over IP, streaming video quality is measured at the Ethernet interface between DSL modem and STB. Quality end-point video is not solely a function of network bandwidth nor is it solely a function of MPEG-2. In fact many of the issues that surround quality end-point video are a combination of both the MPEG-2 quality and the IP packet delivery of the network. The various types of MPEG-2 streams being transported, are affected by the minimum and maximum boundary characteristics of the utilized network. The QoS experienced at the end point is the sum of all factors affecting the video streams sent through the network. WatchiTV will partner with you and assist you throughout optimizing and troubleshooting the IPTV environment.

Real time measurement of MPEG-2 TS (ISO-13818) - PSI table reconstruction/decode - PAT, PMT, CAT. - PCR Jitter and MPEG video/audio packet loss counters per second & accumulated. - Automatic generation of Host table with IP address, UDP port number, MPEG PSI table for all MPEG streams detected. - Event log with time stamp. - PES Header analysis include MPEG-2 Video/Audio and MPEG4 (ISO 14496-10) / H.264.

With WatchiTV you can analyze and watch TV in real time. WatchiTV is the expert application that easily will guide you to any problem in the IPTV network or system.

Electronic Program Guide (EPG) Scanning

During user interaction with the Set-Top-Box. HTTP, RSTP and IGMP running on top of IP are used to deliver real time MPEG video/audio to the attached TV set, including live channel / video on demand.

WatchiTV emulates the IPTV client for Internet web page access or FTP download, and LiveTV/NVoD service test running in paralel. This function enables you to verify the content broadcasted to the STB/client TV set, without using the client TV or bringing a TV monitor to the customer site. All is verified very easy on the engineer’s notebook computer.

The Channel Scanning function provides a handy tool for the engineer in order to ensure that all available channels are accessible. The Channel Scanning also provides information on “first packet arrival time” for each single channel after the IGMP join message has been transmitted. This function will benefit the engineer during optimization of the channel zapping time.

WatchiTV provides you with video/audio and recording/playback functions allowing you to store the problematic MPEG-2 stream into your hard disk. Recordings are stored with time stamps and the stream source IP address, using the advanced trigger condition (trigger reacts on degrading quality e.g. PCR jitter and/or packet loss).

IP Transport - IPTV System Performance

With WatchiTV you can view full duplex traffic statistics per second, in graphics displayed dynamically. WatchiTV uses control/response command detection from the client STB, video server or Middelware, including information on exchanging of DRM security access keys.

- TCP Application Response Time (ART) analysis in ms for Electronic Program Guide selection.

- STB VoD control <FF, RW, pause/stop , play, book mark > or channel changing command analysis in real time.

- Round Trip Time (RTT) analysis in ms for TCP network fly time.

- History review with time stamps in ms.

- Zap Time measurement for join/leave on live channels.- UDP/IP packet arrival timing analysis in bar graphics distributed.

Miscellaneous - STB initialization Monitoring

Most of the Set-Top-Box models in the market needs an STB boot server in order to manage initial STB information or cookies. WatchiTV let you analyze the STB boot process including fault detection in an easy to read graphical screen.

Auto-discovers all IP provisional parameters used for the STB IP gateway, including booting server and mount path.

ALQI - ADSL Loop Quality Information As an optional feature AnaCise offers the ALQI - ADSL Loop Quality Information package, for your WatchiTV portable suite. The ALQI - ADSL Loop Quality Information is a tialor made option that will enhance the scope of IPTV troubleshooting signigficantly, it is especially usefull during IPTV service installation and verification of SLA.In the event of a degrading IPTV service you are now able to narrow down the exact area of a given problem.

With the ALQI - ADSL Loop Quality Information package you have the option of eliminating the last mile as a potential problem area in just a single glance. By integrating the count of line errors per second directly into the MPEG Traffic Stream analysis, WatchiTV gives you even more accurate troubleshooting advice. Look at the Jitter or PID loss and compare against the ATUR status then you will immediately know if the last mile has a problem.

ALQI - ADSL Loop Quality Information is also the ideal tool for SLA verification as it gives you the pricise picture of the ADSL loop including line status information such as error per second and S/N margin statistics in graphics display.

ALQI is an enhancement of your comprehensive WatchiTV portable suite. By adding the ALQI option you are now able to get an even clearer picture of IPTV health status in terms of the last mile access. Instead of bringing the typical handheld ADSL tester to the customer site, which has no correlation to the MPEG stream, you are now able correlate line status information, from DSLAM to the ATU-R modem with the MPEG stream thus making your troubleshooting or SLA verification very easy. This option let you detect a potential degrading of MPEG quality easily thus keeping your SLA and overall IPTV quality on top in a competitive market.
