A test system, for example for set top boxes or game consoles, includes logic to reformat media signals output by a device under test, logic to receive the reformatted media signals and to analyze them for errors, and a pluggable interface coupling and device under test to the logic to reformat the media signals.

Method and system for automated test of end-user devices

A test system, for example for set top boxes or game consoles, includes logic to reformat media signals output by a device under test, logic to receive the reformatted media signals and to analyze them for errors, and a pluggable interface coupling the device under test to the logic to reformat the media signals.

Method and system for automated test of multi-media user devices

A method for measuring the amount of noise in a video image includes receiving a signal from an imaging device; extracting a luma component from a color image; applying a filter to compute the second derivatives of the extracted luma component; determining a ratio of noise pixels to total pixels in the second derivative; and comparing the ratio to a pre-determined ratio.

System and method for video quality parametric tests

A test system includes a supervisor unit coupled to a control interface; the control interface coupled to first and second test modules, each test module comprising a first logic module to test macro blocking errors; a second logic module to perform optical character recognition; a third logic module to perform signal to noise ratio measurement; and a fourth logic module to perform random noise measurement; each test module coupled to a device under test, the four logic modules applied to test a menu-driven video decoding device.

Multimedia device test system

A method and system for automatically evaluating the quality of a signal transmitted by an imaging device. The amount of noise in the video signal is analyzed using an algorithm that does not require comparison to a template signal. The results of the algorithm determine whether the signal meets a pre-determined threshold value for signal quality.
