On Location
Vienna's finishing facilities conform full-resolution masters and run frame-accurate QC against ORF broadcast specifications, EBU standards and streaming-platform delivery requirements.
Here is how this works in practice. We deliver online conform and quality control through Vienna's post-prod finishing facilities, rebuilding edited sequences at full resolution and inspecting the final master frame by frame. Our team ingests the offline edit, source media and supplementary elements, reconstructs the timeline from high-resolution RAW and log sources, and integrates colour, VFX, titles and audio layback into a unified master.
Here is the short of it. We run full QC against the target specs — checking video levels, loudness, sync, artefacts, subtitle placement and format compliance — and produce detailed reports with frame-specific timecodes so any issue can be fixed precisely. We conform and QC for each release window, whether the deliverable is an ORF broadcast master at EBU specs, a DCI theatrical package, or a streaming master for Netflix, Amazon or Disney+, locking the tech specs before conform starts.
Here is the breakdown. Austria's conform and QC work is set by the delivery standards of an EBU member market. EBU R128 loudness and EBU tech specs apply to broadcast deliverables for ORF, ORF III and ORF-ON, ServusTV, Puls 4 and ATV. German and English versioning is standard for the German-language audience, with subtitle and audio-track conform handled as part of finishing.
Here is what that looks like on the ground. Vienna's facilities QC a steady flow of ORF drama, high-volume natural-history and factual content from Red Bull Media House and Terra Mater Studios, and global co-productions backed by the Österreichisches Filminstitut and its ÖFI+ rebates. Streaming-sites delivery is conformed to each sites's specs. The Microsoft Azure 'Austria East' region, opened in Vienna in 2024, supports cloud-based conform and QC workflows with domestic data residency.
From broadcast finishing rooms to suites tied to Rosenhügel Filmstudios. Vienna's conform infrastructure pairs frame-accurate assembly with careful compliance.
