Cube-Tec International has developed a new online quality certification service for the surveillance of analog playback devices: Trusted Playback. By analyzing quality metadata generated by Calibration-Inspector, Trusted Playback documents the current condition of the analog playback devices used by a digitization service provider.

Through this, a content owner is able to define and validate the technical specifications of the playback devices employed in an outsourced digitization project.

The Trusted Playback online platform offers different levels of access to these quality data - from visual overviews of long term data to detailed views in any granularity.

Since the condition and quality of the playback devices are the most critical components for defining the audio quality of the final archive file, Trusted Playback is a quantum leap in the professionalization of service levels in mass digitization projects.
