Carl,
have you thought about how multi-version capability could be implemented into DCP-o-matic? I understand that currently for most people it only makes sense for timed-text which is only in 2.x, but I guess one could still think about ways how to implement it?

I remember a thread in the forum where one guy was running dcp-o-matic on a G5 PowerMac. I was surprised it actually seemed to run on a PPC. Does anyone know exactly which OSs are still supported? A friend just wanted to test-drive it on his video-editing G5 running Tiger/10.4, but it didn't start. Same result on an Intel iMac running 10.5.8.
The lowest OS X version I do usually test is 10.6.8. I think the guy on the support forum mentions 10.7 on a G5. I always thought 10.5.8 was the latest OS X version supporting PPC?

Hi there,
I am new to DCP's and this list,–very likely like many others before–having been thrust into this world by the need to deliver a film to a movie theater in their preferred format.
Above all my monster is a little over two hours long, with a 5.1 soundtrack ;-)
Being a Mac person (up to this point…) I got a trial version of a commercial player to test DCP playback. Waiting for my refurbished renering machine that can run Windows I also signed up for digitAll dcpPlayerFree, but what I realised is that I would not need so much functionality for peace of mind.
Would it be possible to create a free DCP-player that read a buffer of like say 5-10 sec worth of images and sound, generated a temporary movie file for playback using a local architecture, like QuickTime on the Mac, and then played the segment? The user would use the slider to determine where to start.
The great advantage would be that one could check the file from within DCP-o-matic, including encrypted media, which is a function reserved for the pricy commercial players.
Cheers,
Andrew
Hi there,
I got a Dell Precision T5500 (with 24 GB of memory; it seems I really need about 8) yesterday, and after organising a Displayport-cable today was able to run a first test, writing to an external USB-2 disk:

Would it be better to run a Linux on it? Will using the eSata connection for the external HD make much of a difference?

Thanks for everything you told me, this material that I dagger that is a is a commercial film. there any possibility that this movie that is in the DCP can convertoje in MOV or MPEG2. If there is a possibility to do this conversion, will help many thanks.

Dear Adi,
This list can help you but it is difficult to understand what you are
trying to do.
You can read carefully the manual
(http://dcpomatic.com/manual/pdf/dcpomatic.pdf) before using this software.
Best regards,
Lilian

Hello.
But is there any possibility to do this conversion by DCP in the video file.
The lurtem will help a lot.

You can not convert a DCP to a video file with DCP-o-matic.
If your content is encrypted, you need a DKDM and other special tools.
This list can not help you for this topic.

Once dagger tried several times to send you photos and DCP material that dagger I do I want to import the DCP-o-matic and send you a new error and picture what gives error when I give the command to import the material in DCP-o-matic. If you send and photos when kame tried and DCP-omatic batch converter that what gives error.
Hope you give me a solution.

Once dagger tried several times to send you photos and DCP material that dagger I do I want to import the DCP-o-matic and send you a new error and picture what gives error when I give the command to import the material in DCP-o-matic. If you send and photos when kame tried and DCP-omatic batch converter that what gives error.
Hope you give me a solution.

You would create different versions of a DCP within the existing GUI, then select which ones to throw together later? This could build up on DCP-o-matics capability to use a single video-file for multiple encodings/CPLs.

This could work in a similar way as the existing GUI batch converter. As a matter of fact, it could be a modified version of the batch converter, with a simple checkbox wether to create individual DCPs or a multi version package?

Hi. I have a material in dcp slosed in kdm and I need to converter in MOV or in MP4. What should I do?Thanks
Hi all,
There have been some problems lately with this mailing list bouncing when
sending email to @yahoo addresses. I've just installed a Mailman update
which will hopefully fix it. If someone with an @yahoo.com address reads
this, perhaps they could post a short reply to test it out.
Thanks & sorry for the noise.
Best regards,
Carl

I think it probably would. The original reasoning was to spot if the end
of a previous encode had been corrupted by a crash / power-cut or
whatever. On reflection it seems more sensible perhaps to work back from
the end of the existing data and find the first frame that has the correct
checksum, then continue the encode from there.

Hi Carl,
Re: Sound Sync.
I'm using 1.76 which I've just realised is not the latest.. in the
timing tab I changed frame rate from 25 to 24 and I believe DCP-o-Matic
used to say, audio re-sampled to xxx, but it does not now so I must be
changing the wrong value.
Any ideas? Thanks, Kevin.

Yes.

I'm having an issue with sound sync. Input file is an AVI at 25fps and I
set DCP-o-Matic to output 24fps (our projector can handle 25fps ok but
there is a visual glitch when the frame-rate changes).
The problem is that although the image does run at 24fps the audio
continues at 25fps which obviously causes it to be wildly out of sync.
Am I doing something wrong?

I mentioned before that I like the way DCP-o-matic shows the essential processing options below the content tab, so that there is a quick overview about what happens during the conversion with regard to scaling, aspect ratio, audio, etc.
Wondering wether we could add a full set of these details below the DCP tab - as there is more than enough space there, and some of the DCP tab options are relevant to these. Also, the DCP tab should normally be the final stage before one hits 'Jobs -> Create DCP', so I think it would be good to have an overview over all essential processing there before one finally hits 'Make DCP. One could even an another 'Make DCP' button there.
In a later release, I also think it would be more useful to include the 'tips' or hints there, possibly behind the specific parameter causing the warning/hint. I think 'Tips' will be easily missed as it has to be called manually.
e.g. something like:
Content frame rate is 25 fps -> Warning Icon, Click and 'Your DCP frame rate 25fps may cause problems...' appears.
Same for audio issues, DCP bandwith, etc. This would add to my idea from above for a full overview of most essential aspects of the DCP creation.
And: I brought this up earlier, but Carl has a different opinion on this: I still think the scaling method should go under the content tab and has to be settable content-specific. I don't think it makes sense to have a choice of different scaling methods, but only 'global'. The only reason to choose different scaling methods should be content-related. Another reason: Scaling method is not a DCI/DCP specific parameter, unlike all other parameters under the DCP tab.

'Classic' server-side media blocks with HD-SDI connections towards the projector use a different transmission colorspace for 3D (because Dual-Link HD-SDI can not do 48fps in full 12Bit xyz/4:4:4). Thus for 3D, these systems use 10Bit YCbCr over HD-SDI between Server and projector, so the projector needs a special input format for 3D.
But HFR in the strict sense of HFR-3D does not work on these systems anyway, HFR-3D (96/120Hz playout frame rate) does not work over HD-SDI at all.
Only IMB/IMS Systems support HFR-3D, and the IMB systems does not suffer the bandwith limitation as HD-SDI, so, 3D on IMB systems use xyz/4:4:4 as well as 2D/24fps.
But for all those formats and signals, the storage/DCP format is always yxz. And that is what DCP-o-matic does.
You may in fact be after playing 48fps 2D, so to say, 2D-HFR. And you may have found an 48fps YCbCr format on the projector. But that is meant to be used with 'classic' 3D on HD-SDI systems. Technweise, the DCP storage format is always xyz, not matter what frame rate or 2D/3D. The transmission format between server and mediablock/projector can ALWAYS be different, but that is nothing DCP-o-matic has to deal with. You configure suitable output/input formats on server and projector to deal with that.

Has anyone tried HFR with dcpomatic?
I know that the colorspace is different, so wondering if dcpomatic
magically detect the fps and use the right colorspace.
Doing some tests, will keep updating.
Thanks!

A dcp-o-matic user sent me a screenshot to get some advice on proper scaling options for his project. I noticed that the german localization on his machine is screwed - his screenshot shows english and german mixed wildly.
Any idea what could cause this? He is using Mavericks (OS X 10.10.1). Occurs with both 1.76 and 1.76.42. Second screenshot is 10.6.8 - everything okay.
Did anyone else have similiar issues with other localizations in OS X versions?
Carl - I noticed dramatically different file sizes in the various versions of DCP-o-matic for Mac - e.g. sometimes 25Mbytes, sometimes 120MBytes. The current breed is rather small. What's the reason for that?

Fix for parts of content at presentation times less than zero
being played in certain circumstances (#418).
Fix incorrect behaviour of "Down" button (to move content later in
the list).

name’ was un-ticked.
Remove default scale configuration option and instead guess the
initial scale from the content's size and pixel aspect ratio.
Allow bypass of digest calculation for image sequence content.
Allow bypass of colourspace conversion (#266)
Rename “Add folder” button to “Add image sequence”
Move “Keep video in sequence” button into the timeline window.
Add Pause button for all jobs (part of #344)

But did you test the runtime/fps performance with Big Buck Bunny?

Someone told me about his problem with trimming off the end of files. He usually does that based on the visuals (as in 'in fabulous 3D'). However, he can't hear the audio in DCP-o-matic, and his trims very often cuts of audio. Could there be a way to solve this in DCP-o-matic?
Is it very difficult to add audio monitoring to the preview function? Or splitting audio/video that has been imported interleaved?
