The digital media tech and workflow solution provider Telestream has announced the integration of its Vantage video transcoding and workflow orchestration products with VidCheck's automated quality control product, VidChecker.

"Automated QC is becoming increasingly critical in file-based workflows, particularly with the proliferation of different formats that a broadcaster or content producer is often asked to provide," said John Pallett, director of product marketing and enterprise products at Telestream, in a statement. "Vantage does a great job producing the different versions, and VidChecker allows users to fully integrate QC within Vantage prior to transcoding to ensure the validity of incoming content."

The integration means that users of VidChecker can do an independent check to ensure that the different versions created by Vantage exactly match the versions required within one automated, unified system.

"This addresses key issues in implementing file-based workflows -- making transcoding and QC as integrated and reliable as possible," added Thomas Dove, CEO at VidCheck in a statement.
