INTERACTIVE MENU TESTING

Let us be the ones to discover any errors or inconsistencies, instead of your customers. 3rd i comprehensively evaluates every aspect of Blu-ray and DVD menus. This includes strict proofreading of the assets, all the way to thorough navigation. Whether the disc is basic and straightforward, or feature-rich with a dynamic, complex menu, our experienced team has literally seen it all. We ensure that your disc functions exactly the way you want it to. When your materials come face to face with consumers, there won’t be any surprises.

BLU-RAY AND DVD SPECIFICATIONS CREATION AND MANAGEMENT

3rd i works closely with our major studio partners to create and manage the specifications used by all vendors for their home entertainment releases. By developing and maintaining these clear and concise sets of rules, the service we provide empowers our customers to work with multiple vendor facilities. This allows for consistency among vendors, and a smooth and cost-effective journey from project conception to market placement.

EVALUATION OF VIDEO, AUDIO, SUBTITLES, AND CAPTIONS

Our staff of quality assurance experts evaluates all assets on a Blu-ray or DVD disc, regardless of the project’s complexities. We go to great lengths to verify that all video, audio, subtitle, and caption streams are error-free, and ready for total consumer enjoyment.

DEDICATED QUALITY ASSURANCE STATIONS WITH BLU-RAY 3D

Our Culver City facilities feature numerous dedicated quality assurance rooms. Each studio includes a variety of monitors, players, and surround sound receivers and speakers, all of which covers every level of audio and video performance – from the casual consumer, to the most dedicated cinephile or audiophile.

3rd i’s professional quality assurance studios also come equipped for Blu-ray 3D evaluation, using both active and passive 3D presentation systems. Our highly trained staff of experts understands the particular complexities that 3D brings to the QA process, as well as the particular needs of the 3D consumer.

PLAYER COMPATIBILITY

When it comes to a complete evaluation of Blu-ray and DVD discs, sometimes using just a few different players isn’t thorough enough. In order to ensure maximum compatibility with the numerous makes and models of consumer equipment, 3rd i tests your disc with dozens of media players that are connected to numerous receivers and monitors. All of our clients receive complete reports that detail any inconsistencies across the various players and equipment we use.
