Codec rejected by destination
Failure signal
A codec rejected by destination condition is reported or detected during delivery.
Likely cause
The controlling record, technical state or approved specification for delivery does not match the current asset or workflow.
Verification
Compare codec profile, level, chroma, bit depth and bitrate with the current specification.
Corrective action
Transcode from the verified master to an exact compliant preset and run QC again.
Prevention
Add this verification to the delivery gate, retain immutable evidence and assign one accountable owner.
