Hi Carl,
could you explain these options to us (the Trim settings in itself is clear, although it is always worth to mention they are offsets FROM the Start and FROM the end)?
I know the 'Keep video in sequence' belongs to the content/timeline box above the Timing options, but still, what does it mean?
And, a long time want to have - cue to any position with the play slider below the preview image, then hit a key or 'Set' button to input the current cue time below the slider into the Trim number boxes.
Why do we have these 'SET' buttons anyway?
What has become of the DVD-o-matic alternative options 'PlayTrim/EncodeTrim'?
- Carsten
DCP properties in DCP-o-matic allows to set odd numbers of audio channels - how does it encode if I set it to 3,5,7? I see it updates the channel matrix accodingly, but what will be the resulting audio.mxf?
- Carsten
When I try to add an MP3 file to a project, I get an error:
'Error (could not find video stream)'
Seems that the 'MP3' extension or the file header makes DCP-o-matic think it is a videofile?
- Carsten
Currently, DCP-o-matic maxes out at 12 audio channels (which is fine ;-) ). The channel number is set under DCP properties. Will this actually create a 12ch BWF/MXF in the DCP, or will more than 8ch always create a 16ch BWF/MXF with unused channel padded with silence?
Wondering wether 10/12/14ch BWF/MXF are allowed at all...
- Carsten
Ok, ok.
I guess I know where my confusion comes from : satellite receiver and subtitles on live shows ???
Bmp so no alpha gradient on DVD.
Thanks

Several dependencies need to be updated:
libboost-thread1.53.0 -> libboost-thread1.55.0
libboost-filesystem1.53.0 -> libboost-filesystem1.55.0
libboost-date-time1.49.0 -> libboost-date-time1.55.0
Overriding during installation still does not work because the binary
links these libraries directly:
> $ dpkg --ignore-depends=libboost-thread1.53.0
> --ignore-depends=libboost-filesystem1.53.0
> --ignore-depends=libboost-date-time1.49.0 -i dcpomatic_1.69.0-1_amd64.deb

Yes, PNG is part of the spec. It's used when very special characters are needed, very 'graphic' layouts, colours, etc.

Yeah, and then it would be a nightmare to start editing OCR errors during/before the conversion ;-)

'Qube Cinema to Introduce Cloud-Based KDM Service at NAB
KeySmith.biz Offers Invitation-only Access to Easy Key Management Service for Independent Filmmakers & Postproduction Facilities'
The interesting part here is that through this service, the user has access to a worldwide cinema server certificate database to create KDMs. Doing this in DCP-o-matic needs a specific certificate to be present/provided by the cinema beforehand. For most cinemas/operators, dealing with their certificate(s) directly is not part of their daily business.
