There has been presented a simulation system of network disturbances affecting quality of multimedia streams transmitted in an IP network. The system has been designed for investigating and testing new multimedia services and systems and checking developed criteria of quality assessment of multimedia streams. It is shown that to determine resulting quality of multimedia streams transmitted in the real time mode parameters received from players of remote users can be used. Such parameters as playback start time, minimum number of frames per second, maximum jump (number) of frame loss, and minimum buffer size in seconds which has been
registered during an entire playback of a multimedia stream have been used for quality assessment.
