Venera Technologies has announced it is shipping the DeepVu H.264 bitstream Analyzer, a software application that analyzes stored MPEG files in detail.

 

The Windows-based software application enables MPEG professionals to analyze stored media files in a range of formats such as H.264, MPEG-4 Part 2, H.263, AAC, and AMR.

The DeepVu H.264 bitstream Analyzer performs high level semantic and syntactic checks on MPEG streams, while simultaneously enabling users to dig deep into media data through the navigation features.

 

Through Macroblock level analysis, professionals receive details regarding the stream including Macroblock Type, Motion Vectors, Bit Distribution, Texture Data, and Coded Block Pattern.

 

The software comes with various graphing features that include Buffer Analysis, Bitrate Analysis, Quantization Distribution, Macroblock Type, and PSNR. A Video Stream Comparison also permits media professionals to draw comparisons between encoded files in an adjacent frame structure.

 

The DeepVu Analyzer also permits the analysis of several file formats such as MP4, 3GPP, and MPEG-2 TS through semantic and syntactical checks. Streams that are part of these files can be extracted and a rich analysis can be performed on each one.

 

The software application provides detailed report generation and viewing capabilities and comes with an in-built report file viewer for more user-friendly presentations of the generated reports. These reports are also stored for future reference in a location selected by the user.

 

Also included in the software is a command line tool that analyzes specified files and stores the results in a text file. Users are able to build custom scripts around this tool in order to analyze large batches of streams in a predefined manner.
