Hi all, I don't think integrating the Kakadu encoder would be a big problem, but it would probably only be worth it if significant numbers of DVD-o-matic users have a licence ... I'm not sure how widespread that is.

Re: [DVD-o-matic] Frame number and temporary folders

Hi Paul Sorry for the slight delay, my email threw a wobbler and I only just received this. > Firstly, have you made any progress on displaying the frame number under the video image?

[DVD-o-matic] Trim Frames Feature

by Carsten Kurz

Hi Carl, nice work. Used a few other DCP creating tools before, was a bit sceptical at first about your 'all-in-one-converter'. However, great functionality in a single package, and, most important for me, all processing/conversion steps for video and audio explained and documented. Now, I'm using the most recent version 0.83/64bit Windows. Seems the Trim frames feature doesn't work. Whatever numbers I dial in for Start/End, it will always create the full length DCP from my 1:31:42 source. … [View More]

[DVD-o-matic] Frame number and temporary folders

by Paul Willmott

Hi Carl Firstly, have you made any progress on displaying the frame number under the video image? And secondly, a new request, is it possible to have the option for the temporary folders to be automatically deleted at the end of creating a DCP (perhaps an option on the preferences menu)? It would make life a bit easier when the main folder is for ingesting to our server. Keep up the great work!

[DVD-o-matic] VBR-coding

by Adam Klotblixt

First post to this mailing-list. yay! DVD-o-matic is a very nice program, that I hope will grow to be even greater. I will try to help by raising some discussions. Something I thought might improve on the DCP-size is to enable quality-based JPEG2000-encoding. OpenJPEG has an option to do this (-q according to documentation), with a value in decibels. Does the DCP-standard accept VBR-files? My web-search found no definitive answer. /Adam Klotblixt

[DVD-o-matic] Renaming DVD-o-matic

by Adam Klotblixt

I think the "-o-matic" sounds really retro, but I like it since the film-industry is so old. It is also very different from the other product-names in this category. I suggest DCP-o-matic, which is not too different from the current name. /Adam Klotblixt

[DVD-o-matic] faster encoding with GPU?

by Adam Klotblixt

Since creating DCPs takes so much time, I was really happy to see that OpenJPEG has plans to extend their encoder to use GPUs. This might be the cheapest way to speed up the encoding, but I still have no real numbers on what to expect in performance. The graphs I saw were difficult to compare to modern CPUs/GPUs. Will it be hard to implement the usage of both the CPU and the GPU for encoding? Am I silly for hoping this might be good value, or is it better/cheaper to get more CPUs? /Adam Klotblixt

Re: [DVD-o-matic] Renaming DVD-o-matic

by Mike Blakesley / Roxy Theatre / Valley Auto

How about "DCP Crunch"? It definitely "crunches" any kind of video into a DCP, and it's a cool "hip" sounding name. Plus using that word, you could come up with a really cool logo/splash screen. "...-o-matic" sounds kind of retro, like out of the 1960s. Mike Blakesley
