MSU Video Quality Measurement Tool Description

MSU Video Quality Measurement Tool is designed to let you compare the video quality of two or more clips. For example, it can be used to find out which video has the best quality out of two files containing the same footage. The program offers support for AVI, AVS, YUV and BMP format. The main application window has a classical look and neatly organized structure, providing direct access to all available settings. You can indicate the original file and compressed one to perform a single-reference comparison, or point out another processed video to examine both of them.Measure the video quality in three stepsIt is possible to apply a mask file and black mask, select the metric type (e.g. PSNR, APSNR, SSIM, MSE, MSAD, Delta) and color component (e.g. Y-YUV, R-RGB), as well as choose the output between saving results to a CSV file, creating a video/image with the metric visualization, or saving only the bad frames. Advanced settings availableMSU Video Quality Measurement Tool comes loaded with other options and editable properties too. For example, you can open videos with AVISynth (if it's installed on the PC), set the MSU VQMT type (REC.601 or PC.601), find out more information online about the metrics, as well as enable an audio notification and pick the preferred WAV file to play on task completion. Personalize attributes for each output modeAs far as output parameters are concerned, you can establish the target folder, file naming pattern or fixed name, CSV type, floating point delimiter and Unicode generation mode when saving results to CSV format, file naming pattern, target directory and compression mode when generating a metric visualization, together with the position, metric values and frame number printing when exporting only the bad frames. Evaluation and conclusionThe software utility takes little time to carry out video comparison tasks, during which it uses a reasonable amount of CPU and RAM. We have not come across any unpleasant surprises in our tests, since MSU Video Quality Measurement Tool did not hang, crash or display error dialogs. Thanks to its advanced settings, this application should be welcomed by all experienced users who want to efficiently test the quality of video clips.
