As captured on 2026-03-11, Netflix requires dubbing/AD archival assets within 20 business days of final secondary audio via Source Management, split into Standard and Occasional deliverables; an Atmos dubbed dialogue stem must have at least a 7.1.2 bed and at most 118 objects as long-play 48 kHz/24-bit BWAV ADM; the page change log lists 2020-12-02 and 2023-07-13. The live JSON on 2026-10-22 returned only the introduction, so currency after March 2026 is unconfirmed. Curator qualifications: Pages read 2026-10-22; no deliverable produced. Live page body not returned; archive capture is the evidence. Limitations: Pages read 2026-10-22; no deliverable produced. Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
