The Mividi WSM120 provides an affordable multi-viewer monitoring solution for IP
streaming and SDI video. It supports IPTV (UDP), HTTP Live Streaming (HLS), MPEG-DASH, RTMP (Flash), RTSP, SRT streaming formats, and can monitor video sources via NDI and SDI. It can be used for live broadcast as well as VOD monitoring.
IP Streaming and SDI Video
Monitoring Solution The Mividi WSM120 is a multi-viewer monitoring system designed for monitoring IPTV and Internet streaming video services. It supports most common IPTV and Internet Streaming media protocols including UDP, RTP, HTTP, HLS (HTTP Live Streaming), MPEG-DASH, RTMP, RTSP and SRT. It’s also capable of taking uncompressed video input via SDI.
The system provides a real-time view of multiple
video services coming from different streaming servers. Streams with different streaming protocols IP and SDI Hybrid Support can be monitored in the same time. It can The Mividi WSM120 supports hybrid inputs of IP and SDI. The simultaneously display up to 60 SD or 30 HD video IP streams are received through regular 1G or 10G NICs, and services using a single computer. Additionally, the the SDI video sources are input via PCIe SDI input cards. system supports video rotation when more video Different types of streams can be played and monitored at the displays are needed. same time.
The system can be used for monitoring both live The system supports most common IP streaming protocols, broadcast and VOD streaming services. Hundreds of including TS over UDP, RTP, HLS, TS over HTTP, MPEG-DASH, VOD streams can be bundled together and the RTMP, RTSP, and SRT. NDI streams also supported. Single monitoring software will play the VOD services program TS (SPTS) or multi-program TS (MPTS) are supported. using their playlist URLs one by one. The test can be Video programs as well as audio-only programs are supported. looped around and visual alarms are triggered when the video streaming service is interrupted or To play a video program on a multi-viewer panel, a user can errors in the streams are detected. enter the IP address and port for UDP or RTP streams, or the URL address of the video program on the configuration panel, The system displays video content and audio VU and then map the stream to a player panel for video display. bars, and calculates audio loudness level. The For video services that include multiple alternate bitrate monitoring software runs on standard Windows 10 streams, the software allows a user to specify a specific stream or Windows Server 2012, 2016 or 2019. The cost for to play and be monitored. On each video display panel (PIP), setting up such a monitoring system is low, and it is the video source can be quickly switched by changing the easy to use and maintain. streaming URL. Live Broadcast and VOD Monitoring Flexible Multi-viewer Display The Mividi WSM120 supports both live broadcast and VOD The WSM120 supports multi-viewer display of videos and monitoring. To set up live broadcast video monitoring, simply audio PCM levels of IPTV or Internet video streaming map a URL to a display panel. When multiple URLs are video services. It also calculates audio loudness and mapped to a display panel, the system will start to rotate displays the loudness value along with video images. among multiple streams. Similarly, multiple VOD stream URLs can be mapped to one display panel and VOD streams can be Additionally, the system can decode and display DVB played in turn. When all VOD streams are finished, they can subtitles and ATSC closed captioning data. be replayed in an infinite loop. Each monitoring system can support up to 60 SD or 30 HD The system supports MPEG-2, AVC and HEVC video encoding video programs. Users can create arbitrary number of formats, as well as commonly used audio formats including playing panels (PIP) within the limit of hardware resource MP3, AAC, AAC plus, and AC3. It supports ATSC closed and software license. The location and size of each panel captioning and DVB subtitles. When there are multiple audios can be configured. In addition, multiple display styles are present in the stream, users can select specific audio streams to display. provided for users to choose.
A single computer can play up to 60 SD or 30 HD programs A single monitoring server can connect to four TV simultaneously. Additionally, the software provides a video monitoring screens for multi-screen display. The player rotation feature. When more videos need to be displayed panels (PIPs) can be arbitrarily configured in terms of size beyond the computer capability, videos can be played in turn and location. Audio-only program display is also with user configuration time duration. supported. The system can capture multi-viewer display screen, encode and stream captured desktop screen video to a remote To increase the performance of computer server, the location using HTTP or UDP protocols for remote view of the software utilizes GPU acceleration. Users can enable multi-viewer output. GPU decoding for some input channels while disable for other channels at the same time.
Configuration Window Error Detection and Alarms In addition to decoding and rendering video and audio streams, the system will also monitor a number of error conditions in the input streams, including:
• Loss of input stream;
• Loss of or failed to decode audio or video data; • Drop of video or audio frames; • Black and frozen frames; Loss of audio sound or loudness level is not within user specified range
Users can specify the test thresholds depending on input
video streams. Multiple configuration profiles can be created for different type of video programs. For example, one test profile can be created for all news channels and other profile can be created for movie channels. Local and Remote View of Output The system provides visual, email and messaging alarms Users can connect the outputs of a graphic card to local TV when errors are detected in input streams. The alarm monitors for multi-viewer display. Our recommended methods are configurable by selecting specific alarm graphic cards are Nvidia Quadro or RTX series, although triggers, time periods and email and message frequency. other type of cards can be used. The Nvidia cards normally contain 3-4 DP (Display Port) output which can be easily converted to HDMI if your TV monitors do not take DP inputs. One to four TV screens may be connected to a single server.
In addition to local display, the WSM120 software can also
capture the display screen and generate an IP stream for remote view of the multi-viewer output. Multiple streams may be generated for multiple display screens. Different streaming formats are supported based on the need of remote users, including UDP, RTP and TS over HTTP.
Cloud Ready The Mividi WSM120 runs on Windows Server OS and is ready to be deployed in cloud VM. Since video decoding and rendering requires significant computer resources, it’s recommended to use a dedicated cloud VM to run the application. The performance of cloud server may also change widely depending the type of CPUs. If you’ve considering using the software in cloud, we may be able to provide more information on the performance of different types of cloud servers. Features
