Content Testing
Definitions
Intellikey Signature TestingTM includes
many conventional testing solutions that are scaled
to the unique size requirements of the project. This
testing can be done on any range of platforms and content
delivery methods.
Compatibility
This testing protocol locates player manufacturer inconsistencies
with intended disc performance when related to authoring
methods. Depending upon assigned protocol, technicians
can verify that disc menus and video titles load
and initialize properly, that firmware settings interact
with the disc without error and notate performance
inconsistencies between player models and manufacturers.
Functionality
This testing protocol discovers authoring and design
inconsistencies. Technicians perform a navigation
test on disc menus and access each disc menu button,
check for spelling errors throughout the disc menus
and ensure that disc menu highlights, disc menu backgrounds
and menu graphics all appear as intended by the author.
Linear Playback
This test consists of a technician viewing the movie
title and all supplemental video titles with a combination
of audio and subtitle streams selected by the client.
Linear Playback tests are designed to discover video,
audio, subtitle and foreign language errors and anomalies.
Usability
This testing will generate a report with observations
regarding overall product functionality and include
recommendations based on industry standards and user
friendliness. The project could involve website,
disc or hardware usability testing. In order to provide
the recommendations, Intellikey will perform a customized
human interface testing protocol that may also identify
errors and anomalies which will be reflected in Intellikey
Signature ReportingTM.
This reporting includes an executive summary analysis.

NTSC 1 Intellikey AMPTM Compatibility
Testing
--- Intellikey’s proprietary AMPTM (Affected
Market Percentage) is offered with all NTSC 1 testing
reports. Exacting and reliable market research is used
to ensure that Intellikey has the most comprehensive
manufacturer samples of DVD players available for AMPTM reporting.
The AMPTM is
determined from a base of 100 of the top players sold
in the domestic marketplace for DVD compatibility testing.
Each issue is assigned an AMPTM percentage
that reflects the specific market percentage of DVD
players affected by that particular issue. This figure
allows clients to know just how potentially serious
their issue could be, and the portion of the market
it could affect.
PC and Mac
--- over 165 configurations including a variety of
operating systems and browsers for content testing.
Handheld Devices
--- content and audio testing on any pocket-sized device
which typically has a small visual display screen
and limited audio capability, often with connectivity
for communication.
TV Format Testing
--- a comprehensive television testing matrix for NTSC1
and PAL regions for testing on a diversity of technologies
that include CRT, LCD, projection, plasma and DLP
formats in a variety of sizes and manufacturer types
based upon consumer sales and market dissemination.
