Actus View for Compliance, Monitoring and Content Repurposing
The new Actus View version 5 release offers enhanced support for multiple audio tracks and multiple subtitles.

Loudness measurements combined with robust logging allow users to quickly review the status and provide continuous, exportable measurements as proof of compliance and to defend against loudness complaints. The powerful combination of loudness measurement and logging easily demonstrates compliance with loudness standards.
New in version 5, Actus View records Transport Stream (TS), allowing broadcasters and operators to record the transport stream “as is” from any input (MPEG-2, MPEG-4) and in the same high resolution. Actus View supports ASI, ATSC, DVB-T/T2 Analog and SDI.
