Flawless, automatic QC with AmberFin’s iCR Review & QC
If you are going to be certain of producing quality video then regular QC (quality control) is indispensable.
It is also costly and time-consuming if the task falls to trained operators. Now it doesn’t have to.
AmberFin’s iCR Review & QC is a flexible software system which automatically QCs your video on ingestion and at any other point you want in your workflow, monitoring dozens of parameters to give you a more accurate, detailed QC than any human operator could.
How do you deliver content over channels with restricted bandwidth?
If you are trying to get content onto platforms or channels with restricted bandwidth, such as the internet or mobile TV, then iCR Review & QC’s automated QC gives you a quick, cost-effective and efficient way of maintaining quality in your repurposed files.
The automated QC means you can process many hours of content quickly and easily, so your margins are not eroded by personnel costs.
Guarantee delivery of high-quality HD content
High definition (HD) encoding is notoriously unreliable and is also one area where you absolutely cannot afford to take chances with the quality of your output.
With iCR Review & QC, you can monitor for glitches that are barely perceptible to the human eye, giving you the best possible chance of delivering a high-quality HD product.
Lower production costs
Right now you are probably paying skilled operators to manually review your video content. Wouldn’t it be a good idea to free them up from basic QC work so they can add more value to your business through other tasks?
With iCR Review & QC you can let the system do most of the QC work for you, so your operatives only need to review a report and check for anomalies. So right away they can spend more time on the things that will make more money for your business.
Give your content a pedigree
With quality at a premium in today’s broadcast market, it pays to be able to demonstrate that your video material is free from glitches.
When you run it through iCR Review & QC, the resulting report gives you a record of quality detailing dozens of variables. Store this alongside the master file and you suddenly have a pedigree to go with your content, for no extra cost.
Ensure the quality of transcodes and outputs
As you care about your customers, you will want to know your transcodes and outputs are of as high a quality as your master files.
With iCR Review & QC this is easy, since you can apply QCs to just about any file following any operation—including those not carried out by iCR.
