GETTING STARTED
QCBox
is a quality control tool, intended to guarantee the successful playout of media files in
AirBox
.
QCBox
checks directories, playlists or sets of files.
Content verifications include loudness measurement and/or detection of missing audio/video samples.
QCBox
stores quality data about each checked
media file to an
*.mtd
file.
AirBox
can play or skip a clip depending on that quality data and the user settings.
