[Mp4-tech] New tools for video quality analysis

[Dmitriy Vatolin]

Dear all!
  We release two tools for VISUAL and FORMAL video quality analysis.
  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
  MSU Human Perceptual Video Quality tool (publicly released today)
  http://compression.ru/video/quality_measure/perceptual_video_quality_tool_en.html
  Intended for the blind video quality comparison. We use non standard
  approach of 2 simultaneous video review (very useful during our
  filters and codecs tuning), and 2 programs:
  * Task manager (planner and statistics calculation tool)
  * Player - tool for experts, that play test sequences:
    * with 3 seconds rewind (if allowed in task)
    * with pause (if allowed in task)
    * with several time of one pair showing (for evaluation of expert stability)
    * with final mark
  see more option in documentation.
  ITU-R BT.500 and MSU procedures can be used for final results calculation.

  MSU Video Quality Measurement Tool
  http://compression.ru/video/quality_measure/video_measurement_tool_en.html
  Intended for the formal video quality comparison.
  Support formats: *.AVI, *.AVS, *.YUV and *.BMP
  Support metrics: PSNR, Delta, SSIM, VQM, MSU Bluring and MSU Blocking
  Very useful feature for codecs/filter tuning - comparative analysis.
  New releases of this tool coming soon (more metrics, metrics plug-in
  interface and etc.)
