Hi all. Does anyone have any pointers on converting a 3D bluray to DCP? The bluray which is the source in this case has the 3D encoded as MVC. From my reading, this means the right eye picture is encoded as a separate stream (which is a delta from the left eye). Have ripped the bluray with MakeMKV which recognises that it's an MVC-3D stream. And the file it outputs appears to be the right size so I think MakeMKV is not dropping the extra stream or something like that. But I haven't found any software that can display both eyes at present. DCP-o-matic doesn't see it, and nor does Bino 3D player or VLC. I'm on Mac but can get hold of a Windows box if I need to. Anyone encountered this before? Many thanks, Jim

Re: [DCP-o-matic] DCP issue

by Carsten Kurz

Hi John, approx one minute in 30min sounds like a 24/25fps issue. That IS usually no issue, you are free to generate a DCP with either 24 or 25 fps in both SMPTE or INTEROP format - except if you operate a Dolby DSS100/DSP100, which is not able to play 25fps. There are still quite a few DSS100/DSP100 around, so if there is a chance your DCP might end up on one of those, you should also create a 24fps version. This should not occur with a single (interleaved video/audio) file of content, so I assume you use more than one content file? - Carsten > Am 31.07.2017 um 08:00 schrieb John Martin <John(a)trinitytheatre.net>: > > Hi Carsten, > > Thank you for coming back so quickly – the answer appears to be framerate – the software was prompting me to change it – but if I ignore that it remains the same length. > > I will test it when I am in the theatre today. > > Thanks again. > > Best regards > > John Martin > Artistic Director > > Phone: 07762 587768 > Website: www.trinitytheatre.net <http://www.trinitytheatre.net/> > Get more info at: <image001.png> <http://www.facebook.com/trinitytheatre/TRINITY-SRV01/Users/darren.smallman/…> <image002.png> <http://www.linkedin.com/company/trinity-theatre> <image003.png> <http://twitter.com/trinitytheatre> > > From: Carsten Kurz [mailto:audiovisual@t-online.de <mailto:audiovisual@t-online.de>] > Sent: 30 July 2017 14:19 > To: John Martin; dcpomatic(a)carlh.net <mailto:dcpomatic@carlh.net> > Subject: Re: [DCP-o-matic] DCP issue > > Open timeline view and check wether there is an overlapping/longer audio track, or subtitles.

[DCP-o-matic] DCP issue

by John Martin

Hi, I am using DCP -o - matic to create a DCP from a video file that runs 30 minutes. In the authoring process it is adding an extra minute of black at the end. As this is part of a scheduled show it is causing problems with the timing of what comes afterwards as well as causing our projectionists to think that there has been some sort of failure! Would you know what is causing this and how I might solve the problem? I look forward to hearing from you.

[DCP-o-matic] Little help need → dvd to dcp

by Gérald Maruccia

Hi… …not the first time I do that but today I fail… DCP-O-Matic 2.10.5 git 61b5d4ad8 on Ubuntu 14.04. I have a dvd to convert to dcp. First thing I did was concatenate the 4 vob into one file : cat VTS_01_1.VOB VTS_01_2.VOB VTS_01_3.VOB VTS_01_4.VOB | ffmpeg -i - brialy.mp4 Then I use some personal script to get some kind of 5.1 sound → file becomes brialy_51.mov Now in DCP-o-Matic conversion always stops @ same number of images ( about 4500 ). There's some warning in log @ line 2407 FFmpeg: Warning: data is not aligned! This can lead to a speedloss Files attached are log, ffprobe.log andmy script for 5.1 upmix. I suspect more has to be done regarding « concatenate » the vob into one single. Any hints / help welcome. Best regards, Gerald

[DCP-o-matic] Dolby TruHD audio analyze

by Jonathan K. F. Jensen

Hi all. Every now I get a BD that needs to be converted to DCP, usually because the content isn't out on DCP or it's a pre-release for a special screening of some sorts. This time the BD content actually has a Dolby TrueHD 7.1 track, which is the obvious choice, as the screening is in a 7.1 room. As I usually do, I create a mkv file with subtitles and the desired track by using MakeMKV. DOM sees both the subtitle track and the 7.1 audio track which I can then map accordingly when I set ''12 - 7.1/HI/VI However, when clicking the 'analyze audio' button, everything comes to a halt. After churning for 3 hours, the ETA was 273 hours! :D That is somewhat excessive and I am thinking there might be a bug somewhere, as I can see Carsten and others have mentioned in the forums (DOM and Film-Tech) that they successfully have used Dolby TrueHD tracks in their DCPs. I'd rather not waste the time encoding the DCP if the levels are too high, so maybe someone can comment on this behavior? DOM v2.10.5 Win10 Pro Best regards, Jonathan
