Improve video quality—inspect and debug the decoding process, test/debug encoders, and analyze streams for HEVC, VP9, AVC, and MPEG-2.

With this comprehensive suite of expert-grade video analysis software tools for current and next-gen video coding standards, build compliant video solutions and bring innovation to market faster with Intel® Video Pro Analyzer. This toolset for HEVC, VP9, AVC, and MPEG-2 formats gives media and video codec developers/architects, video software experts, and validation engineers the power to inspect the entire decode process and pinpoint trouble spots so they can deliver the best quality video for the world to see. Video experts can also test and debug media encoders, analyze streams side-by-side, and analyze/debug broken streams. Innovate for the next-gen color gamut supporting Ultra HD content with HDR video/BT2020 (10-bit) support.

Intel® Video Pro Analyzer (Intel® VPA) provides the ability to inspect the entire decoder process, and offers broader analyzer features and  statistics. This includes the ability to graphically analyze coding flow, heat maps, motion vectors, prediction processes, and more. This removes entire steps and iterations in the overhead when developing and testing new encoders and comparing next-gen video solutions. Intel® VPA also features a dual view mode for comparing two streams. Other features include reference or decoded YUV compare, picture statistics, probability arrays and trees, entropy engine state, syntax elements, inter/intra prediction and filtered samples views, motion vector predictor lists, and coefficients.
