Hello everyone,
Hi Shanu,
I had a quick question.
What's the difference between DCP-o-matic and Davinci Resolve (without
using easyDCP plugin) in terms of how they convert source material into
jpeg2000 (XYZ color space)?
My master video is Apple Prores HQ.
Basically, I have used Davinci Resolve (without using easyDCP plugin) and
openDCP to make a DCP in the past, and I was successful, but Davinci
Resolve crashes randomly sometimes these days, so I wanted to give
DCP-o-matic a shot.
I'm afraid I don't know what Resolve does. In theory they should be
the same, since there is a pretty-well defined mathematical operation
that should be followed to convert video to XYZ.
Someone else on the list might know...
I guess I can just do a test conversion with
DCP-o-matic and check the
result with my eyes, but I thought it wouldn't hurt to ask...
That would be a good starting point, I think.
All the best,
Carl
