What is video quality metrics?
Video quality metrics are algorithms designed to predict how actual viewers would gauge video quality. These metrics are used for a range of activities, from comparing codecs and different encoding configurations, to assisting in production and live quality of experience (QoE) monitoring.
What defines the quality of a video signal?
Video quality is a characteristic of a video passed through a video transmission or processing system that describes perceived video degradation (typically, compared to the original video).
What is video Psnr?
Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR) is widely used as a video quality metric or performance indicator. Some studies have indicated that it correlates poorly with subjective quality, whilst others have used it on the basis that it provides a good correlation with subjective data.
What is good bitrate for video?
They recommend a bitrate of at least 5 Mbps for 720p videos, 8 Mbps for 1080p videos, 16 Mbps for 1440p videos, and 35-45 Mbps for 4K videos at standard frame rates.
What is a good VMAF score?
VMAF values spans from quality 0–100, where 0 is worst, and 100 is best. There is hard to find information of what VMAF value to target, but Real Networks wrote a white paper in the subject and they found that VMAF 93 is a good value to target, but everything with an average over 90 will look good.
What is 1080p video quality?
1080p (1920×1080 progressively displayed pixels; also known as Full HD or FHD, and BT. 709) is a set of HDTV high-definition video modes characterized by 1,920 pixels displayed across the screen horizontally and 1,080 pixels down the screen vertically; the p stands for progressive scan, i.e. non-interlaced.
How do you know if a video is 720p or 1080p?
Even simpler, you can right-click on the file name in Windows Explorer, select Properties, then look at the Detail tab, you will see the vertical resolution. If it is less than 720, your file is either 720p or 480p, while if it is greater than 720, the file will be at least 1080p.
How is PSNR calculated for video?
Some authors report average of individual image/frame PSNR, which is equivalent to computing a single PSNR from the geometric mean of individual image/frame mean- square error (MSE). Others compute a single PSNR from the arithmetic mean of frame MSEs for each video.
What is BD rate video?
BD-Rate and BD-PSNR are objective measures used in video compression to compare the rate-distortion performance or compression efficiency of two different video codecs or different settings of the same video codec over a range of bitrate or quality values.
What is a good bitrate for 1080p video?
Seeing as the current standard for YouTube videos 1080p resolution, the best bitrate setting is at least 8 Mbps. This is very achievable nowadays, as most internet providers offer internet speeds even higher than that bitrate.
Is VMAF a full reference?
Video Multimethod Assessment Fusion (VMAF) is an objective full-reference video quality metric developed by Netflix in cooperation with the University of Southern California, The IPI/LS2N lab University of Nantes, and the Laboratory for Image and Video Engineering (LIVE) at The University of Texas at Austin.
What is Libvmaf?
The C library libvmaf provides an interface to incorporate VMAF into your code, and tools to integrate other feature extractors into the library. The Python library offers a full array of wrapper classes and scripts for software testing, VMAF model training and validation, dataset processing, data visualization, etc.

What is video quality monitor (VQM)?
Video Quality Monitor (VQM) is a precise and very flexible solution to measure and monitor audio video quality perceived by end-users (also called QoE: Quality of Experience). VQM produces perceived video quality scores expressed on a MOS (Mean Opinion Score) scale.
