Sentry Assure

Sentry Assure is optimized to help video service providers comply with the CALM Act which requires that ads be no louder than the programs they accompany.  Sentry Assure was designed to specifically identify loud commercials in the multichannel environment and combines the ability to simultaneously monitor hundreds of channels in real time with loudness detection capabilities and post-splice ad insertion monitoring. In addition, Sentry Assure's ad insertion monitoring includes a historical thumbnail review of each splice point to provide visual validation of ads that ran. To better support CALM Act and CRTC regulations, the ad insertion reports also present a synchronized display of the audio loudness graph and the ad cue/splice display, providing quick insight into the changes of audio loudness during transitions into and out of commercial segments.
