“We chose the OmniTek TQ because the combined package of high-resolution waveforms, full video and audio monitoring gives us exactly the QC analysis capabilities we need” Gary Welsh - STV Technical Manager
 

The market has changed dramatically for broadcasters in recent years. Where once video and audio were the only considerations, now a whole range of data services are provided as well. There are different aspect ratios being broadcast, teletext services, closed captions, a variety of audio and often multi-language options. In addition, broadcasts need to monitor MPEG compression artefacts as there is an ever increasing to broadcast material at lower bit rates.

The OmniTek TQ has been developed specifically with the broadcaster in mind and provides a complete monitoring system for broadcast video and audio signals. For the first time, high-resolution waveform and vectorscope displays are integrated with comprehensive audio monitoring capabilities (including Dolby), teletext and closed caption decoding, error logging and macroblock detection, all contained in a single cost-effective package. Touchscreen controls provide simple, flexible operation.
