Viewline 550 Viewline provide drainage CCTV survey reporting software and online drainage training via TrueTrain

Viewline Reporting is pleased to announce the launch of the company’s latest CCTV pipeline inspection reporting software. Designed to enable drainage contractors to produce professional CCTV survey reports to the standards required by the latest Manual of Sewer Condition Classification 5th edition. It incorporates the latest Header and Observation codes from MSCC5. The company’s aim over the past

eight years has been to provide a professional yet affordable alternative to existing reporting programs that still conforms to industry standard coding, determined by the Water Research Centre WRc. The latest edition of Viewline does exactly that, producing clear and concise industry standard reports. This home grown company realises how important it is that the customer receives an easy to understand report with clear pictures of any observations. Nearly 30 years of experience in carrying out domestic and commercial CCTV surveys has enabled an understanding of the importance of providing a report and remedial recommendations that the customer can easily understand. HOW IT WORKS

The recent Viewline upgrade includes the latest codes and long hand definitions for Header input information and Observation/Defect reporting. On completion of data input there are a number of reporting options including a PDF pipe chart report (with long hand information and pictures) or Standard report using Observation code format, both of which having a mail merge capability for easy production of remedial/repair recommendations. Costs can also be included here giving the contractor full control over this aspect of their business in one handy document. The result is an industry standard drain condition reporting program, producing quality reports that all customers will easily understand. Features include:
● Production of professional hard copy PDF reports with pictures.
● Inclusion of contractors own logo prominently placed on each page.
● Programmed with a full set of MSCC5 standard codes and observations.
● Ease of use for the operator.
● Compatible with any CCTV survey system.
● Capture of live video footage while reporting.
● Import of video files to each section header.
● Capture of observation images.
● Approved by the NADC.
● Time saving ‘Mail Merge’ option – for easy remedial recommendations.
● 12 months comprehensive customer support included.

This is our new, alternative user interface on PipeReport.ai

We have styled it very much like the Classic Viewline interface so you can upload and play back CCTV inspection videos directly in the browser, smart video transcoding to 480p H.264 — optimised for inspection use, frame capture at precise video timestamps to record defect snapshots, direct browser-to-cloud uploads for fast, reliable performance.

One account, multiple users, automated reporting.

We wanted to get in touch with a couple of important updates — one relating to a recent Windows issue that may have affected you.

Windows Update & Database Connectivity Fix

A recent Windows Update caused issues for some Viewline users, including the software failing to launch, crashing on startup, or being unable to open, save, or export reports. This was caused by a conflict between the Windows update and the underlying database component Viewline uses to store your project data.

We've investigated and resolved the issue. The fix is available on our website. Just download and install as Standalone. If you experienced any of these symptoms, please get in touch and we'll get you back up and running quickly. If Viewline is working normally for you, no action is needed.

Some updates. The recent Windows update issue has caused a few issues. We have resolved a lot of these, but a clean vers...

Some updates. The recent Windows update issue has caused a few issues. We have resolved a lot of these, but a clean version that removes all the issues will be out very soon.
Pipereport.ai is coming along nicely. We're improving the AI recommendations, adding a Viewline like alternative interface and changes to the drawing package.
What is really needed, and will be done, is more instructional videos.

Did you know you can create live reports on most CCTV Systems and create a PipeReport project from the XML output?

Our first batch of CCTV drain survey reports using the new Viewline pipereport.a.i format went out last week and the feedback from our customers has been excellent.

PipeReport.ai makes it easy to use your existing camera to create your reports live. Works well with Minicam, Scanprobe, Pearpoint and XTI camera systems.
We're also working on turning inclinometer readings into fall graphs that can be included in the report output.

Professional CCTV Inspection Platform

06/10/2025

We're excited to share something we've been working on at Viewline...

For 19 years, Viewline has been the go-to Windows application for drainage professionals doing CCTV inspection reporting. During that time we have increased features whilst keeping the price the same. But times are changing and we need to keep up with technology.

So we built PipeReport.

It's a modern web application that brings everything drainage surveyors trust about Viewline into the cloud. Survey from anywhere, on any device, with AI assistance to speed up your workflow.

Same expertise. New platform. Total flexibility.

PipeReport allows the upload of videos or images, contains its own drawing package and provides summaries for you. It's completely free for Viewline users. So, you get the best of both worlds, you can send your reports in the traditional Viewline way or send yuor customers a link to your dynamic report.

Here's to making CCTV inspection reporting easier for the teams in the field.
