Testronic
Labs launches digital TV testing service
Testronic
Laboratories, the quality assurance specialist for packaged media
and electronic distribution, has announced a new digital testing service
to broadcasters, IRD and set top box manufacturers and related digital
television software and service providers.
The new testing service, designed to ensure the highest possible quality
of user experience in digital television has been developed to identify
compatibility and functionality issues which are often only manifest
on the end user’s TV set.
Common – but serious problems – have included picture
problems due to unsupported resolutions on the TV, parental control
that still permits children to view adult material, loss of image
or sound, wrong tiering of Pay TV services and channel tuning set-up
failures.
With its experience of providing quality assurance and certification
across the home entertainment, hardware and software industries, Testronic
Labs has developed a global solution to quality assurance issues facing
the digital TV industry.
Skilled operatives provide testing from labs in Belgium, Poland, UK
and USA or at the client’s facility measuring not only the technical
aspects of the equipment and services, but also the user experience
and functions.
BluePrint Suite provides an elaborate library of pre-designed and
pre-implemented test cases and the expertise to deliver specific test
cases to meet the requirements of broadcasters, satellite operators,
cable operators, IRD manufacturers and subscriber management service
providers.
