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.

Hi just sent a film encoded with DCP Omatic to TIFF film festival.
It was rejected.
Here is the info from Technicolor

Ok got it. Thank you for your valuable replies.
Searching more carefully in the ML archives I also found a message from you
about the infeasibility of cloud-based encoding with a poor internet
connection.
Thanks again!

Hi Carsten,
no I didn't. What is the typical bandwidth?
Thanks,

Hi all,
I wonder if it would be possible to run encode server instances through the
Internet, rather than through a LAN.
If I understood correctly, the current implementation is something like
this:
The master dcpomatic2 broadcasts in its LAN a "I mean really, Ray, it's
used." msg to UDP/6193 to trigger a <ServerAvailable> msg back to its
TCP/6193 from an eventual dcpomatic2_server instance.
Once the master has content to encode, it sends <EncodingRequest> to the
encoding servers on TCP/6192.
Forgetting about the automatic encoding server discovery part, a possible
approach would be something similar to what Jim proposed at
http://main.carlh.net/pipermail/dcpomatic/2016-May/001562.html by means of
SSH local port forwarding.
In this way, the only required modification would be adding a
user-specified port for the encoding server list. Do you have any other
idea? Can this be considered a legit new feature?
Thanks in advance!
Davide Sanvito
