HLS Analyzer Service Offerings

HLSAnalyzer.com provides both HLS Validation and HLS Monitoring services at affordable price points. The 24x7 cloud-based HLS Monitoring service is available in multiple geographies. Individual monitoring instances download and analyze all HLS playlists and segments, providing outage notices for stream delivery issues and SCTE-35 stoppages via email and HTTP POSTs. Our affordable HLS monitoring prices make us an ideal choice for both small and large operators. With both a browser-based UI and RESTful APIs, both system operators and developers can fully utilize our service. Monitoring customers can select the geographical region (USA, Europe) when ordering their service.

Transport Stream Extraction: Our service now includes advanced transport stream extraction capabilities for SCTE-35 cue markers, CCIR-608 closed captions, and CCIR-708 closed captions directly from MPEG-TS segments. This feature enables multiple use cases including:

  • Compliance Applications: Verify closed caption presence and accuracy to meet FCC regulations and accessibility requirements. Monitor SCTE-35 ad insertion markers for programmatic advertising compliance. Captions and SCTE-35 signals in the transport stream can be optionally archived for up to 30 days for compliance audit trails and historical analysis.
  • 24x7 Monitoring Applications: Continuous extraction and analysis of captions and cue markers from live streams. Real-time alerts for missing or malformed caption data, ensuring uninterrupted accessibility compliance.
  • Video AI and Text Processing: Extract caption text streams for AI-powered content analysis, search indexing, sentiment analysis, and metadata generation. Enable automated content categorization and recommendation systems.
  • Technical Analysis: Deep inspection of CEA-608/708 caption formatting, timing accuracy, and synchronization with video. SCTE-35 marker validation for proper ad break signaling and content segmentation.

All transport stream extraction features are available through our RESTful API with both polling and Server-Sent Events (SSE) modes for real-time streaming data delivery. This enables seamless integration with monitoring dashboards, compliance reporting systems, and AI/ML processing pipelines.
