Abstract
Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for detecting malfunctions of computing devices causing outputs of video content. Partially or fully static content frames may be detected, and, indications may be generated based on the static content frames. The indications may be analyzed to identify computing devices with degraded performance. Diagnostic tests may be run by the identified computing devices and/or other actions performed based on a determination of static content frames.
Claims21
A method comprising:
- receiving, from a plurality of computing devices, one or more first signals indicating that the plurality of computing devices each outputted a plurality of content frames that are at least partially static;
- and
- outputting, based on a determination of a threshold being satisfied by the plurality of computing devices that outputted the plurality of content frames that are at least partially static, one or more second signals that indicate the plurality of content frames were correctly outputted by the plurality of computing devices.
An apparatus comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, configure the apparatus to:
- receive, from a plurality of computing devices, one or more first signals indicating that the plurality of computing devices each outputted a plurality of content frames that are at least partially static;
- and
- output, based on a determination of a threshold being satisfied by the plurality of computing devices that outputted the plurality of content frames that are at least partially static, one or more second signals that indicate the plurality of content frames were correctly outputted by the plurality of computing devices.
One or more nontransitory computer-readable media storing instructions that, when executed, cause performance of actions comprising:
- receiving, from a plurality of computing devices, one or more first signals indicating that the plurality of computing devices each outputted a plurality of content frames that are at least partially static;
- and
- outputting, based on a determination of a threshold being satisfied by the plurality of computing devices that outputted the plurality of content frames that are at least partially static, one or more second signals that indicate the plurality of content frames were correctly outputted by the plurality of computing devices.
