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.

Online conform and QC for Colombian broadcast, streaming, and festival masters
Here is what that looks like on the ground. Online conform and QC for Colombian projects centres on Toma Uno Bogotá, whose conform suite reads EDL, AAF, and XML hand-offs from the Avid Media Composer and DaVinci Resolve Studio timelines that dominate the local market. Caracol and RCN telenovela pipelines deliver Avid AAFs with embedded effects and audio routing; cinema and high-end series projects from Limonero Films, Antorcha Post, and Latido Films arrive as Resolve XMLs with CDL metadata intact.
Our conform team rebuilds those timelines against the full-resolution camera negative — ARRI Alexa 35 ARRIRAW, Sony Venice 2 X-OCN, RED V-Raptor R3D — verifies every cut against the approved offline, integrates VFX shots from Limonero Films and freelance Nuke compositors, and renders the final master in the colourist's session ready for grading sign-off. Bilingual EN/ES subtitle conform is handled in the same pass, with neutral-Spanish, Castilian, and LatAm-English tracks validated against the timeline before output.
QC follows the spec sheet of the eventual delivery target. Netflix Latam Bogotá tech-check needs — IMF SMPTE 2067 packages with CPL integrity, Dolby Vision XML alignment, EBU R128 loudness, forced-narrative subtitle behaviour, and metadata schema compliance — are validated through autoQC tools (Baton, Vidchecker) plus eyes-on review on a Sony BVM-HX310 in HDR and SDR trim.
FICCI Cartagena festival cuts get unencrypted DCP-equivalent QC with attention to picture handles and trailer-versus-feature CPL structure. Caracol and CRC broadcast masters are checked against Colombian regulatory loudness and captioning rules. Every QC pass ends with a timecoded error report, a hash manifest, and a re-conform plan if any shot needs return to the editor — so the master ships to the sites or TV networks ready for first-pass acceptance.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is online conform and why is it important?
Online conform is the process of assembling your final master from high-resolution source media, incorporating all creative decisions from offline editing, color grading, VFX, and audio. It's critical because it ensures your delivery matches your approved offline edit with full resolution and quality.
What QC standards do you check against?
We verify against all major broadcast and streaming platform specifications including Netflix, Amazon, Apple TV+, BBC, EBU, and SMPTE standards. Our QC process covers video levels, audio loudness (R128, OP-59), sync, artifacts, and format compliance.
How do you handle VFX and graphics integration?
We work with standardized VFX delivery formats and maintain frame-accurate pull lists for shot replacement. Our conform artists verify each VFX shot matches the timeline position and handles, ensuring seamless integration with the final master.
What happens if QC issues are found?
We identify and address issues before final delivery whenever possible. Our detailed QC reports document any concerns with frame-specific timecodes, allowing for precise fixes. We work with your team to resolve issues efficiently and avoid rejection cycles.
