* videoQC is offered at specific version levels to suit a range of workflows. To check which features are in each version, please see the comparison chart located at: https://www.drastic.tv/productsmenu-56/videoiosoftwarelist
Audio Meters Popup
videoQC provides an independent set of audio meters, which is larger, and may be moved onto a second monitor so you can view videoQC in full screen mode in the first monitor.
Audio Routing
The audio routing panel provides up to 16 channels support for hardware output. This allows audio signals to be routed or joined from any channel in the file to any channel on the output. Various audio routing configurations for typical workflows can be saved and recalled for later use.
Please note: Specific features mentioned above are only available when running under a temporary or permanent license. Please contact Drastic for a license to enable the full feature set for your demo.
videoQC includes two main areas of automated analysis: Metadata and Metric.
Metadata Analysis looks at the incoming file, and determines as many qualities as it can about it. This includes, but is not limited to, file container, channel type and number, frame rate, video height/width/codec/bit depth/aspect ratio/compression/color matrix, audio frequency/bit size/codec/channels/type, and embedded metadata like source/copyright/description/source device/camera settings/reel/take/scene/source/slate/comments. Any of these may be used to create a template to compare incoming files against. One or more templates may exist on a videoQC system, and they can be exported/imported and shared. As well as a go/no go return on this comparison, a visual table will highlight any differences between the file and the expected settings, for easy operator identification.
Metric Analysis - videoQC can also generate a full set of video metrics. These are stored in a SQLite database, so that other applications can access them, and do frame by frame checks including:
- Video size, and frame type (I, P or B)
- Luma, Chroma, Hue, Saturation Min, Max, High, Low, Average
- Vertical line repetition
- Broadcast legal
- Optional PSNR or MS-SSIM charting when pre-compressed source is available
- Audio loudness and RMS
The metric analysis can be manually or automatically started.
The parameters of the analysis can be customized, and the current setting is displayed.
Adjustable parameters include:
- Vertical Line Repitition: lines, frame duration
- Missing Lines: lines, frame duration
- Missing Edges: (example above) top, top maximum, top frame duration, bottom, bottom maximum, bottom frame duration, left, left maximum, left frame duration, right, right maximum, right frame duration
- Black and White: chroma maximum, frame duration
- Still Frames: limit, difference maximum, PSNR check Y (38.0), frame duration
- Broadcast Illegal: broadcast illegal, frame duration
- Over Saturation: maximum, frame duration
- Contrast Blacks: minimum, frame duration
- Gamut Over: maximum, frame duration
- Gamut Under: maximum, frame duration
- Loudness: LKFS (24.0)
- Silence: limit, frame duration
View Data
Once the analysis has completed, you can click a button to view the data. Data tabs are maintained for: per-frame data, metadata, legend (settings/defaults), and events.
Export Results
You can export the results for later review.
You can create a CSV, PDF, an XML, or an HTML document to have a look at the analysis in various MAM solutions. There is an option to create a proxy file from the original source or a portion thereof. Results can also be exported as markers to Adobe, Avid, and Resolve.
Full Reference Comparison
videoQC Workstation lets you load two files and compare them against each other for visual examination and measurement. When a compressed file is compared to its original, typically uncompressed source file, this is referred to as a full reference comparison.
You can visually confirm degradation, or other compression artifacts by playing the two files in various comparison modes to see any obvious differences. Here is an example of the 'mirror' comparison mode.
There are a wide variety of available comparison modes:
From the compare dialog, the user can also launch PSNR (Peak Signal to Noise Ratio), SSIM (Structured Similarity Indexing Method), and MS-SSIM (Multi-Scale Structured Similarity Indexing Method) analyses. Here are the steps to perform this analysis:
Open videoQC and load the compressed file.
Open the QC Analysis window and click full reference.
Open the Compare window and click the Disabled checkbox to enable Comparison mode. The checkbox will then display Enabled.
Use the Orig File button to browse to and select the full resolution source file that was used to create the deliverable content.
As described above, there are a number of visual comparison modes where you can show the two files side by side, over under, boxes mixed by size, and so on. The mixes can be adjusted to suit your workflow. Optionally a guide, or various grids may be overlaid. Flip modes are also available.
To perform PSNR, SSIM, and/or MS-SSIM analyses, click the checkbox(es) at the bottom of the Compare window and press the Launch Analysis button.
This launches the MRAnalyze exe, which performs the analysis. A percentage of completion is displayed.
Once the analysis has finished, videoQC will populate the database with the analysis data. At this point the user will be able to click on the full reference button in the QC Analysis window, and see the data in an intuitive graphical display.
Here is an example of a completed analysis:
videoQC Pro, videoQC Inspect, videoQC Workstation, and videoQC Server all feature a full set of scopes. They can be viewed as a single large scope, or up to 6 scopes at one time. The scopes open in a second window, so a second monitor would improve the viewing experience.
The following scopes are provided:
The Picture view shows the video signal, to confirm the source is correct and to display time code location. Action Safe, Title Safe, Graphic Safe, Picture Frame, and Active Region graticules are optionally available. A number of display modes can be set using the Display Mode selector:
Closed Captions
videoQC (Pro level and above) supports detection and display of a wide range of embedded/internal closed caption formats as well as external closed caption formats and subtitle formats. If any of these caption types are found in the same directory as the main file, with the same file name, they will automatically be loaded and displayed. An existing closed caption file can also be loaded and displayed over the video.
videoQC also supports playing XDS (extended data service) Data when closed captions are playing. XDS can provide information such as Time of Day, Program Details, Station ID, and V-Chip Content Ratings.

SDK and APIs
videoQC Server can be run remotely, by script or using watch folders. videoQC also supports copy/cut/paste, keyboard/mouse and a full RESTful HTTP API. There is more information available on these control systems available here:
https://www.drastic.tv/support-59/supporttipstechnical/26-controlling-videoqc
and a sample web page that uses the REST API is included in the installer:
The analysis results are output as a standard SQLite database, PDF, and application return.
videoQC on a workstation can be loaded by command line/script, controlled by video keyboard or remote control, and cut/paste time code and can save uncompressed images as well as JPG grabs of the video. The workstation version also supports the REST API.
videoQC is also based on the DTMediaRead API, available to third party developers:
- DTMediaRead SDK - Integrate all the file types we read into your own application. Read uncompressed audio and compressed or uncompressed YCbCr 10, YCbCr 10, RGBA or RGB 10 frames. More information is available here.
