The Future of Intelligent Broadcast Monitoring and Compliance Logging

Actus Digital, a global leader in compliance logging and quality assurance monitoring with AI-driven Media Insight, is proud to announce the unveiling of Actus X at NAB 2025. Celebrating its 20th anniversary, this tenth-generation of their Intelligent Monitoring Platform features advances in each of their six standalone products with additional synergy between them.

Actus X represents a major leap forward in the Actus MV multiviewer, significant advances in the company’s compliance logging and quality assurance tools, and exciting new capabilities for AI content analysis within Actus AI Media Insight.

“Actus X is the culmination of two decades of innovation in technical monitoring and compliance logging, delivering a comprehensive easy-to-use tool focused on making the lives of broadcast engineers easier,” said Ken Rubin, Actus Senior VP – Americas.

Actus Digital has poured extensive R&D into Actus X, to enhance efficiency, reliability, and intelligence for modern broadcast operations. Three key enhancements include:

      Next-Generation QA Compliance Logging – Actus X has enhancements and improvements including better access and control over alerts and threshold        settings via its browser-based GUI. Alerts can now be categorized into Problems, Errors, Quality of Experience (QoE), and Quality of Service (QoS) issues, with dynamically adjusting notification workflows for more precise control and improved Quality Assurance.

      Advanced Multiviewer Capabilities – The Actus MV multiviewer received major upgrades including reduced latency, expanded data-overlay options such as SCTE trigger details, Nielsen SID data, and TS analysis. These enhancements complement its capable list of existing features, such as round-robin channel-cycling and penalty-box reporting.

The primary differentiator for Actus MV over traditional multiviewers is that it is engineered to support unlimited mosaic-layouts and unlimited multiviewer-heads for unlimited simultaneous local and remote users, with straightforward interactivity that delivers a highly intuitive user-experience.

      AI-Powered Media Insight – Actus X also delivers powerful content monitoring capabilities that expand the capabilities of the system to news teams and government agencies. It can rapidly extract valuable insights from programming aired on local/international news as well as direct-camera feeds. This enables users to identify, summarize, and highlight breaking news, developing stories, and Government users can monitor for potential security threats and political agendas.

NAB is the premier global stage for broadcast innovation, and Actus is excited to share Actus X with our customers, partners, media professionals, and the broadcast industry.

Monitor with Precision

CTN Relies on Actus Digital to Spread the Word  

By Yolanda Morris
President
Christian Television Network

For over 45-years, CTN has pursued a vision to broadcast the gospel into every home in America. We have grown our broadcast-footprint to include 24 US on-air television stations, satellite broadcasting, internet streaming, and many cable stations. 

We spread the message of Christianity through a diverse array of content, including sermons, talk shows, music programs, and family-oriented films and cater to a wide demographic that seeks uplifting and educational programming, not just to entertain but also to educate and inspire their Christian faith.  

CTN operates three channels, including our primary CTN channel that focuses on televangelism, CTNi that is also televangelism-based but with all programming in Spanish, and CTN Lifestyle that includes secular syndicated programming, Christian talk shows (such as the 700 Club), movies, and Christian-themed entertainment programs. And, we are now adding a fourth channel in many of our markets. 

CENTRALIZING QUALITY CONTROL 

Maintaining the highest quality standards as we continue to expand our TV stations, channels, and distribution partners is an ever-increasing challenge.  

Having the robust Actus QA Compliance Logger in our centralized Network Operation Center in Largo, Florida has enabled us to maintain the highest quality standards. It provides visibility across all of our stations and eliminates the need for personnel at each. 

One of the main benefits for us is that the platform alerts us to any quality issues that arise, such as audio dropouts, video freezing, or signal degradation… so that we can act swiftly to remedy it and ensure our viewers experience seamless programming. 

Actus also provides us with insightful reports that allow us to assess our performance trends over time to proactively address potential issues before they escalate and maintain the consistent level of quality that our audience expects. 

Not only does the Actus Multiviewer professionally display all of our channels across several large portrait-hung displays for our NOC engineering team to monitor live, but it also enables unlimited simultaneous users to log in remotely and access live or recorded content, as well as clip and share content when needed. 

Compliance with FCC Regulations 

Another advantage of using the Actus system is its comprehensive compliance features. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) imposes strict regulations, requiring stations to meet specific standards such as maintaining Closed Captions and not violating the CALM Act, which demands similar volume between programming and commercials. 

As a non-profit organization without unlimited funds for equipment, Actus was an affordable option to ensure we meet all regulatory requirements on a platform that also monitors broadcast performance. This dual role is crucial for us, given the expansive geographies in which we operate.  

This streamlined Actus approach allows us to maintain consistent quality across all channels and provides us with peace of mind knowing that we are FCC compliant. This not only protects our license but also strengthens our programming for our viewers and stakeholders. 

Streamlining Operations

The integration of the Actus system has also streamlined our operational processes. The user-friendly interface allows our technical staff to easily navigate and utilize the system, reducing training time and increasing overall efficiency.  

Additionally, the centralized monitoring capabilities reduce the complexity of our operations and allow our team members to communicate more clearly, leading to a more organized approach and faster resolutions. 

Conclusion

Actus has empowered us to make the corporate office a support hub for all our stations, streamlining our efforts and improving efficiency.  

Our organization is truly excited to move forward with this advanced level of monitoring. It represents a significant step toward modernizing our operations and enhances our ability to excel in what we do.  
 
The Actus system is a crucial piece that we’ve been needing and has become an integral part of our quality assurance strategy across all of our local television stations.

Scalability Across Departments

Customers appreciate our solution’s scalability, which allows multiple departments to work seamlessly within one platform. The ability to expand over time was a key highlight for many (rather than needing to purchase an additional system).

The push for an integrated solution, where one system can serve different departments and different use cases: compliance logging, technical monitoring, multiviewer, OTT monitoring, advanced clipping and export to social, and advanced AI options, all on one platform, allowing the customer to purchase what is needed now and expand later.

OTT Stream Monitoring: QoE and QoS

With the rise of OTT, the demand for ensuring Quality of Experience (QoE) and Quality of Service (QoS) is growing. Our customers love the fact that both their OTA and OTT can be mixed into one system.

Actus Digital, the leading provider of compliance logging and monitoring systems, has proudly integrated with DataMiner systems for many years, enabling customers to centralize information from multiple sources.

NEWSnet and Sports News Highlights Optimize Engineering Efficiency with State-of-the-Art Actus Multiviewer and 24×7 QA-Alerting Intelligent Monitoring Platform

BOSTON, MA — August  27, 2024 — Bridge Media Networks, operator of the NEWSnet and Sports News Highlights networks, announces the integration of Actus Digital’s advanced monitoring solution to optimize its broadcast operations. With a focus on delivering high-quality content to viewers across multiple platforms, Bridge Media Networks sought a comprehensive system to streamline monitoring and ensure consistent viewer quality.

Bridge Media Networks has a hybrid distribution model for NEWSnet and Sports News Highlights that includes both OTT platforms and a range of broadcast stations nationwide. This requires a centralized approach to monitoring and managing broadcasts. Although other brands were considered, Actus emerged as the clear choice based on its robust features and user-friendly interface.

“We recognized the need for a centralized multiviewer to monitor our extensive distribution network,” said Eric Wotila, President of Bridge Media Networks. “Actus provided the perfect solution, offering not only centralized multiviewer monitoring but also automated alerts that allow us to immediately address issues, often times before viewer quality disruption.”

Actus Digital’s system enables Bridge Media Networks to monitor signals, detect anomalies, and receive real-time alerts that ensure uninterrupted broadcasting at optimal quality. The platform’s browser-based access allows for remote connection and improves efficiency by empowering team members to monitor the entire network from any location.

“Our previous manual monitoring process was time-consuming with limited notification of issues. Actus QA Compliance Logger is a significant upgrade, allowing remote access to all stations from one GUI with an impressive depth of monitoring and alerting,” said Wotila.

In addition to traditional OTA broadcasting, Bridge Media Networks is committed to expanding its reach through over-the-top (OTT) platforms and appreciates Actus Digital’s ability to seamlessly monitor OTT feeds and provide insight into stream quality and download performance.

“It was apparent from the very first demo that Actus was exactly what we were looking for. The comprehensive features and cost-effectiveness made it the clear choice,” concluded Wotila. “Actus was very willing to work with us to customize a solution that worked well to meet all of our needs for our NEWSnet and Sports News Highlights networks.”

The Future of Compliance Logging – Comprehensive Intelligent Monitoring

QA Compliance Logger: Compliance Logger requirements continue to evolve, with new regulatory mandates, existing functionalities adapted for new workflows, and new video standards in the broadcast industry emerge that require ongoing support.

For two decades, the Actus QA Compliance Logger has been a pivotal tool in broadcast and streaming compliance logging. It monitors for loudness compliance, SCTE 35/104, closed captions/subtitles, multiple audio languages, NAVE, EAS, EPG, and provides metadata extraction. It supports every industry input, including newer protocols like ATSC 3.0 in the U.S., SMPTE ST 2110, NMOS, and online streaming formats such as HLS, MPEG-DASH, and SRT. All these inputs are seamlessly integrated into a single system and user interface.

Additionally, it integrates external metadata such as as-run logs and schedules, providing detailed discrepancy reports for complete accuracy and compliance.
