Interra Systems real-time monitoring platform ORION now features stream recording support as well as direct integration with BATON Media Player (BMP). Through this combination, broadcast engineering and operations teams will be able to perform deep, frame-by-frame debugging of monitored streams more easily and with greater precision.
“Our goal with the ORION–BMP integration was to make it easier for customers to move from detection to diagnosis within a single, straightforward workflow,” said Anupama Anantharaman, vice president of product management at Interra Systems. “By connecting real-time monitoring with frame-level playback and inspection, we’re helping operations teams discover issues faster and resolve them precisely. Our longterm goal is to simplifying quality assurance workflows while enabling customers to deliver flawless content across every platform.”
The new recording feature in ORION makes it possible to capture segments of monitored streams, particularly around error events. Each recording includes a buffer of 5 to 6 seconds before the error occurs and continues until the issue is resolved or for a user-defined duration. For flexibility when capturing critical stream data, recordings can also be triggered manually, scheduled or initiated during ad transitions.
The integration of Interra Systems’ ORION with BMP will also help media professionals to troubleshoot video delivery issues faster and more effectively. With this integration, users can move directly from real-time monitoring in ORION to frame-accurate playback and deep inspection in BMP, speeding up the root-cause analysis of errors and quality anomalies. The combined workflow accelerates issue identification and ensures that content meets compliance and quality standards before distribution, meanwhile reducing manual effort.
By bridging monitoring and detailed analysis processes, the ORION–BMP integration can enhance operational efficiency and confidence in delivering high quality video experiences. From within the ORION interface, users can launch BMP with a single click to analyze recorded streams in detail.
Errors detected during the recording window are automatically displayed in BMP, and users are able to jump directly to the relevant timestamps and perform frame-by-frame analysis. This streamlined approach eliminates the need for manual exports and external tools, significantly reducing the time and effort required to identify and resolve issues.
ORION-OTT, Interra’s monitoring solution for OTT workflows, already includes BMP integration for debugging VOD assets. Recording support for Live streams in ORION-OTT is planned for a future release. www.interrasystems.com
