Elecard Boro VoD quality control

The diagram shows a media workflow where Elecard QC software performs automated video QC checks at multiple stages — from file storage and transcoding to packaging and delivery via CDN — ensuring reliable video quality control for file-based VoD assets. The centralized Boro VoD server collects results from all probes, providing a complete automated QC of file-based video for seamless media workflow automation.

 

How Elecard Boro VoD Works

Elecard Boro VoD is a client–server QC system consisting of two components: probes and a central server.

 

  1. The probes analyze media files stored in your repositories, checking the container, video, audio, and metadata against predefined test templates. Each template is a set of tests designed to analyze specific parameters and detect errors. When higher performance is required, probes can be combined into a cluster to speed up processing and scale the system to meet project demands.
  2. The central server manages probes and QC tasks, collects results, and generates and stores reports. Through a user-friendly web interface and API, users can control the entire workflow, create and configure templates, and review analysis results.
  3. Once a check is complete, a report is generated in PDF, CSV, or JSON format. It includes an overall status — Passed, Warning, or Failed — along with detailed test results. The web interface also provides detailed logs and visual analytics for each task.
