Just to say that dcp_inspect is a fantastic tool. It's caught a
lot of oddities for us in DCPs provided by filmmakers/distributors
for film festivals, and is also invaluable for hash-checking.
I've also noticed that all DCPs made with DCP-o-matic (v1.x
branch) result in this same warning in EasyDCP Player, but like
you I'm just using the demo version so it doesn't reveal the
specifics. I've always assumed the warning probably relates to the
DCP naming convention (you also often get warnings in dcp_inspect
due to this if some fields in the naming like studio aren't filled
in). But we've never had a single DCP created with DCP-o-matic
fail to play in a cinema (yet!)
Wolfgang, I didn't know you were on this list. I don't know if
dcp_inspect is still in active development, but I have a PR open
for a small change if you'd be willing to merge:
https://github.com/wolfgangw/backports/pull/64
You could use dcp_inspect (1) for a thorough examination and validation of DCPs.
It will catch a lot of issues. And for feedback on the ones it might not I'd be grateful.
Thanks, Wolfgang
Shanu
Could you please tell the version number of DCP-o-Matic that you used, which got that error? If I have that version, I can try a DCP and see if I get the same results.

Hi Shanu,
It could be. I guess there's no way to be sure. Someone else on the list
might have an idea... Sorry I can't be more help.
All the best,
Carl

Thanks for your reply._______________________________________________
I just created a DCP using DCP-o-matic, but when I try to play it with easyDCP trial version, it gives me warnings.
It says "Issues have been detected. For a full report, please license the commercial edition with issue report enabled", so I don't know what the exact
issue is.
Do you think it's the XML one that's listed under FAQ on your website?
Does it always happen with DCPs created using DCP-o-matic?

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
