Metrics

Instantaneous Absolute MOS

1.0-5.0

The instantaneous absolute Video Mean Opinion Score, a 1-5 score that
measures the impact of the video codec, image size, frame rate, packet loss
distribution, GoP structure, content, and frame loss concealment on viewing
quality

Minimal Absolute MOS

1.0-5.0

The minimum absolute Video Mean Opinion Score, a 1-5 score that
measures the impact of the video codec, image size, frame rate, packet loss
distribution, GoP structure, content, and frame loss concealment on viewing
quality

Average Absolute MOS

1.0-5.0

The average absolute Video Mean Opinion Score, a 1-5 score that
measures the impact of the video codec, image size, frame rate, packet loss
distribution, GoP structure, content, and frame loss concealment on viewing
quality

Maximum Absolute MOS

1.0-5.0

The maximum absolute Video Mean Opinion Score, a 1-5 score that
measures the impact of the video codec, image size, frame rate, packet loss
distribution, GoP structure, content, and frame loss concealment on viewing
quality

MOS Below Threshold

0-100%

The proportion of the stream duration where the Absolute MOS-V fell below
the configured analysis threshold.

Transmission Quality

0-50.0

The codec-independent video service transmission quality rating

EPSNR

dB

Estimated Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) expressed in dB. This is an
estimate of the distortion that has occurred between the source video stream
and the output video stream.

Degradation Factors :

0-10

Severity of perceptual quality degradation caused by (each of) the following
factors: Loss, Discard, Codec Quantization Level, Frame Resolution, Frame
Resolution, Frame Rate, GOP Length, Available Network Bandwidth,
Audio/Video Synchronization, Recency

Static Image Proportions

%

The proportion of the video stream that contains static image[s]

High Detail Proportions

%

The proportion of the video stream that contains high detail

Low Detail Proportions

%

The proportion of the video stream that contains low detail

High Panning Proportions

%

The proportion of the video stream that contains a high degree of panning

Low Panning Proportions

%

The proportion of the video stream that contains a low degree of panning

High Motion Proportions

%

The proportion of the video stream that contains high motion

Low Motion Proportions

%

The proportion of the video stream that contains low motion

Video Jitter
Metrics

Frame Inter-arrival Jitter

ms

Average frame inter-arrival jitter in milliseconds. The inter-arrival jitter is
computed relative to the expected arrival time based on the frame rate.

I Frame Inter-arrival Jitter

ms

Average I frame inter-arrival jitter in milliseconds. The inter-arrival jitter is
computed relative to the expected arrival time based on the frame rate.

Average Frame Arrival Delay

ms

Average frame arrival delay, in milliseconds.

Peak Frame Arrival Delay

ms

Peak frame arrival delay, in milliseconds. The peak maintains a hold time of
approx. 10 seconds
