Maximize the quality of your encoded digital media
Now there is a way to meet your standards for the highest quality output without wasting resources on the tedious, time-consuming task of visually evaluating video, frame-by-frame. Semaphore is a robust software application that automates the Quality Control process, so you can evaluate hours of content in minutes, and break the QC bottleneck.

Define and apply your parameters for quality, bit rate, dropped frames or other metrics - then let Semaphore do the rest. Its automatic alerts zero in on frames or scenes that fail to meet your criteria, so you can identify trouble spots at a glance. Straightforward graphs, summary windows and reports provide comprehensive analysis of every frame. With one cost-effective solution you increase your control over your content and eliminate hours of staring at the monitor.

Automatic alerts set to your customized parameters
Semaphore delivers an unprecedented level of automation and control. Prior to QC, simply define your job-specific encoding metrics and Semaphore will alert you if any portion of your content falls outside your acceptable parameters. Don't waste time studying every minute of video - Semaphore can do it for you!

Quick hot-spot identification
Semaphore gives you many tools to zero in on encoding flaws. In addition to the automated alerts, easy-to-read graphs provide comprehensive encoding metrics on a standard media timeline. This frame-accurate timeline includes time code values, to facilitate frame scrubbing and precise adjustments. Maximize efficiency by focusing only on the frames that have failed to meet your standards. Quick segment touch-ups are also a breeze when you use Semaphore in conjunction with the Seen by Scene feature in Inlet's Fathom encoder product family .

Watch Folder
Semaphore "watches" for source files within a central directory (Watch Folder) and moves them automatically through QC. You can designate watch folder settings to analyze all files according to your criteria, and then generate reports via email. This feature accommodates files originating from multiple locations or personnel, for greater processing automation.
Enhanced Report Generation
Semaphore generates comprehensive, easy-to-read reports that detail encoding statistics and alert information in a variety of formats - text, XML or HTML. You can configure Semaphore's user-friendly interface to automatically email these reports to your designated recipient list.
Batch Processing and Reporting
Semaphore gives you a command line option for scripting and batch file processing. Use the Batch Report feature to analyze multiple files and generate the corresponding reports, so you can easily process batches of media without real-time monitoring.
