Hybrid Monitoring

DVB broadcast and IP/OTT monitoring in one platform

One dashboard, one alarm pipeline, one managed service — covering your entire broadcast and streaming operation. SLA with guaranteed response times included.

Why you need hybrid monitoring

Two tools, one operation

Most teams run separate monitoring for DVB and IP/OTT. That means two alert streams, two dashboards, and twice the time to diagnose a failure that spans both.

Live events leave no margin

Sports, news, and live events push both your broadcast chain and OTT delivery at the same time. A blind spot in either domain costs you the moment.

Compliance across both worlds

TR 101 290, loudness, subtitles, and bitrate requirements don’t stop at the broadcast boundary. Your monitoring shouldn’t either.

Unified platform

DVB and IP/OTT. One view. One alarm pipeline.

Every satellite feed, cable service, terrestrial channel, and IP/OTT stream visible in a single configurable dashboard. Your NOC sees everything from one browser tab.

  • DVB transport streams and IP/OTT streams side by side
  • Centralised alarm management across all inputs
  • Penalty box — alarmed services pulled into focus automatically
  • Email and dashboard alarm notifications
  • Alarm reports with event history
  • Bitrate reports across all channels
  • Accessible on any browser, tablet included
  • Multi-site and multi-operator support

Alarm & notification

Know the moment something goes wrong

Alarms surface instantly in the dashboard and are delivered via email so your team can act immediately — whether they are in the NOC or working remotely.

  • Real-time alarm indication per tile
  • Email alarm notifications
  • Alarm event history and reporting
  • Per-service and per-protocol alarm thresholds
  • Penalty box for immediate visual focus on faults

Hybrid-only features

Built for operations that run both worlds

Capabilities only available in the Hybrid tier — on top of the full DVB and IP/OTT feature sets.

Alarm reports

Scheduled and on-demand alarm reports covering all inputs — DVB and IP/OTT. Shareable with management, clients, or regulatory teams.

Bitrate reports

Historical bitrate data for every channel. Spot degradation trends, capacity issues, and encoder inconsistencies before they cause viewer impact.

Loudness monitoring

Continuous loudness measurement across all audio tracks. Deviations flagged in real time to keep your output within regulatory and contractual limits.

Email notifications

Alarm emails delivered directly to your team — configurable per service, per alarm type, or per operator. No need to be at the dashboard.

4:2:2 broadcast support

Full support for 4:2:2 chroma sampling used in professional broadcast environments — ensuring accurate quality monitoring for high-end production and distribution.

SLA included

Guaranteed response times for workarounds and bug fixes. Not an optional add-on — it’s built into every Hybrid Monitoring contract.

Enterprise SLA included as standard

Every Hybrid Monitoring subscription includes an SLA with guaranteed response times for workarounds and bug fixes — covering both your DVB and IP/OTT monitoring. No optional tier, no hidden cost.
