Locating a test signal from the test application GUI

After you have completed the questionnaire from Playback kit Interactive Test Procedure, a test-case list required for your system is generated. With information shown in the test-case list, you can locate the correct test signal from the test application GUI for testing.

About this task

The test-case list contains this information: the online delivery format, profile, video codec, and test-case type.

Figure: An example of a test-case list generated in the interactive test procedure

In the Test case column, the first two digits indicate the test-case type.

Table 1. Test-case type
First two digits Test-case type
01 ChID_2ch
02 ChID_6ch
03 ChID_8ch
04 ChID_6ch_atmos
05 little_endian
06 dual_decoding
07 multi_lang
08 multi_codec
09 multi_av_rate
10 multi_video_rate
11 music
12 crc
13 box
14 codec
15 av_sync
16 av_sync_6ch_atmos

In the test application, test signals are organized by supported features in this structure:

  • <Online_delivery_format_profile>
    • <Video_codec>
      • <Test_case>

You must reference the information indicated in the test-case list to locate a specific test signal from the test application GUI. For example, to locate the test signal of the first row shown in this figure, you must follow these steps.

Procedure

  1. In the test application GUI, select the correct <Online_delivery_format_profile> (in this case, DASH_Live).
  2. Select the correct <Video_codec> (in this case, H.264).
  3. Select the correct <Test_signal> to play (in this case, ChID_2ch).
    For inquiring the test case type, see the table Table 1.
  4. You must repeat steps 1 to 3 to complete all required tests listed for your system capabilities.
