A blackbox is a metal case containing what is often a high-resolution camera and other sensing devices. This technology continues to evolve and be applied in new ways. The blackbox solution from Imagine Communications, for example, captures every aspect of the DTV transmitter's digital signals, as well as surrounding RF interference. It records both the complete MPEG video stream as well as all metadata channels that are generated by the key set-top box processing hardware. Blackbox data can be used to monitor full-time or event-on demand how viewers interact with a program using online metrics such as live chat or social media integration, which allows broadcasters to react in real time and provide feedback on what people are saying about their shows. Imagine Communications' BlackBox solution introduced in 2010, brings together an integrated suite of hardware, software and services to capture, store, transfer and analyze all of the digital content being broadcast. The system records MPEG-2 video streams, transport stream packets and metadata channels associated with each program. The system captures not only the main video stream but also all the associated metadata channels created by set-top box processors for program navigation. This data can be analyzed in real time to test what viewers are doing during a program. It also provides an archive that can be searched using advanced analytics tools to evaluate subscriber viewing behavior. By monitoring the behavior of individual viewers, programmers can target specific groups for specific promotions, discounts or other special offers. And by analyzing viewing patterns for a program over time, broadcasters can uncover the best way to reach each target audience. The latest version of Imagine Communications' blackbox technology was introduced at CES 2011 in Las Vegas. This update added the ability to record over-the-air signals directly from a satellite feed using a Ku-band dish, eliminating the need for expensive indoor equipment racks and local spectrum analyzers. The system is also able to capture video streams locked down with copy protection schemes such as conditional access or output protection system (OPS) used by pay TV operators in many countries. Imagine Communications blackbox solutions, including its embedded digital processing solutions, post-processing and analytics products and services, were recognized by Frost & Sullivan as a "Best of Show" winner at both CES 2010 and 2011. The Imagine Communications digital processing and analytics solution is based on its full line of digital signal processing (DSP) processors that include the Xilinx® XC7A100T FPGA platform. These DSPs are used for video decoding, audio processing, video scaling, digital watermarking, synchronization and other custom applications. Imagine Communications' digital processing and analytics solutions are used in set-top boxes, IPTV devices and digital television receivers worldwide. The company serves the consumer electronics industry as well as pay-TV operators ranging from small national systems to video service providers (VSPs) serving more than 30 million subscribers worldwide.http://www.imaginecommunications.com/us/news/press_releases/press_release_details.html?press=835   cfa1e77820
