Online Conform & QC
Professional finishing and quality control ensuring flawless delivery for broadcast, streaming, and theatrical release.
Online conform and quality control is the technical finishing process where edited sequences are rebuilt at full resolution, effects are rendered, and the final master is inspected frame-by-frame for technical errors. QC checks verify color accuracy, audio sync, subtitle placement, and compliance with delivery specifications.
We coordinate online conform and QC services with facilities equipped for your project's resolution and delivery format requirements. Our team manages media delivery, technical specifications, and error reporting to ensure your finished master meets the exacting standards of your distribution partners.

Prague finishing facilities rebuild edits at full resolution and QC against EBU R128, SMPTE, and streaming-platform specs, ensuring masters pass technical review for Česká televize and international distributors alike.
Here is how this works in practice. We set up online conform and quality control through Czech facilities equipped for your project's resolution and delivery format, managing media delivery, technical specs, and error reporting so the finished master meets the exacting standards of distribution partners. Conform artists rebuild the edited timeline from high-resolution sources — frame-accurate reconstruction of the approved offline — then integrate color, VFX, titles, and audio layback into a unified master. The QC pass inspects the result frame by frame: video levels, audio loudness, sync, subtitle placement, artefacts, and format compliance, all verified against the relevant specs.
Here is the short of it. For European broadcast that means EBU R128 loudness and EBU technical standards; for theatrical and streaming it means SMPTE and sites-specific needs for Netflix, Max, and Apple TV+. Detailed QC reports document any concern with frame-specific timecodes, so fixes are precise and rejection cycles are avoided. The aim is first-pass success — a master that clears technical review without re-delivery.
Here is the breakdown. The Czech Republic's post-prod industry, built around Prague and Barrandov Studios, has long handled the finishing pipeline for global features and series, and online conform and QC are the tight final stage of that work. Czech post houses regularly deliver into Česká televize alongside global distributors. As an EBU member country the Czech Republic applies EBU loudness and technical standards across broadcast delivery. Expertise the QC teams here bring to every master.
Here is what that looks like on the ground. The same facilities prepare content for theatrical release, where DCI-compliant Digital Cinema Packages must pass strict technical verification before screening at festivals such as Karlovy Vary. Conform artists work with standardized VFX delivery formats and frame-accurate pull lists, verifying each replacement shot against timeline position and handles. Whether your project needs a broadcast master conformed for ČT, a streaming deliverable QC'd to sites spec, or a theatrical master prepared for festival screening, our team aligns facilities to the resolution, format, and standard your delivery demands.
