I assisted a Short-Film DCP conversion, they supplied 10 versions, of wich 9 are subtitled. Among those with special charsets, the greek and cyrillic versions seem to come out nicely, but the chinese version doesn't show any subtitles, just three dots per title in some cases. I have yet to see the source material for these subtitles, but anyway, does someone have experience with chinese subtitles and proper font/charset selection? These are SMPTE DCPs.

Hello,
just a silly thing I've noticed in 2.7.1 :
in DCP tab when the cursor is in « name » box I can no longer use Del
key to …delete only the BackSpace Key works.
Del Key has no effect.
Ubuntu 14.04 here.
Best regards,
Gérald.

Hi all,
I'm going to push a new version 2.8.0 soon (in the next few days),
based on 2.7.17 or something close to it.
Do let me know if you have any translation updates, or news of any
show-stopping bugs in 2.7.x.
Thanks,
Carl
Hi,
I have an xml error in easydcp player. However the dcp’s created in 2.7.1 are playable in the latest easydcp player and in the most dcp servers. So not the biggest concern.
Attached you’ll find a screenshot of the errors. Just to let you know…

There has been one report about an encrypted Interop-DCP created by DCP-o-matic not working on a GDC server.
Does anyone deal with encrypted Interops for GDCs and can confirm there is a problem?
Is anyone willing to test this? We would need his server/media block certificate to create a small encrypted SMPTE and Interop Test-DCP, in case you are not familiar with encrypting DCPs and creating KDMs.

I am bringing this up on the list as I may not have understood the issue completely myself, feel free to comment...
I rarely do split video/audio projects, so never came across the issue myself doing real work, but I remember we talked about it from time to time already.
Consider the following situation: Someone wants to create a DCP from content created at 25fps, he creates either a video or image sequence with 25fps, and a split audio file with that timing reference as well.
Now, in DCP-o-matic he want's to create a 24fps version. It is not a problem to instruct DOM to recalculate the video frame rate, stretching the video in absolute length.
But what about the audio timing reference if I do NOT want to process the audio file externally to 24fps? I should be able to tell DCP-o-matic 'use this audio, but resample to a 24fps reference'. Actually I though that was possible using the frame rate input box under 'Content'->'Audio' - but it seems this is not possible. I can input '24' there instead of '25' (as I would with the video), but nothing changes about the audio sample rate?

Dom it's supposed to lowercase the language of burnt-in subtitles, but
I can't figure out when does it.
I tried a few times with subtitles already burnt in the source video
and they are always upper cased.
As I see it, if I add a subtitle language on the ISDCF name dialog and
there is no subtitle track by dom, it could be considered as burnt-in
in the source material. Upper casing only when dom is creating a
track.

Looks as if there is a hard limit of +/- 28% in vertical and horizontal subtitle offset. Is there a hard reason for this (timed text)?
I guess it could be useful to have 'toptitles' instead of subtitles occasionally?
- Carsten
I received a request to make a KDM for multiple screens at a single
location. Is it possible to make just one KDM for all, or do I need to make
separate KDMs for each screen?
Thanks--
