Was wondering if it was possible to build a DIY open sources LMS.
Also not entirely sure exactly what a LMS is/how it works, anyone got any
good links to an overview/primer.
Hope people don't mind me posting this here, it is for use with a DCP
server and my googeling keeps on returning info about Learning Management
Systems;(.
Probably best to reply off list.

If you only want a very basic LMS (Library) just install an ftp server
(filezilla), some people use a network disk with ftp access. You will
be able to see it as an ingest server from your projection servers.
If you are talking about a TMS (Theater Management System),
automatically creating playlists, schedule, etc. that's another
history, and I can be interested. I have been considering starting my
own, as I couldn't find enough information about the available options
out there.

The problem is, you need to obtain internal information on the server/projector APIs.
Usually under NDA, and they probably will not necessarily grant everyone access to these.
There is free version of the CinéDigital Manager TMS - limited to two screens.
It's the same TMS that Kinoton uses/sells.

Well, was not so hard to find out that the doremi schedule database is
an SQLite. Just in case they don't want to give me API access, I was
considering modifying it directly, what can go wrong? :D
I will be interested in an open source one so it can be adapted to
alternative content and other fancy stuff at art houses, and specially
for festival requirements.
Thanks for the link!

New subject: [DCP-o-matic] about duration and number of frames
Hello,
sometimes one picture speaks better, so it's attached.
It's DCP-o-Matic 1.65
There are two surprising things :
- it's a 9 seconds long video, made of 216 .png frames, 24 fps. As you
can see on the right the progress playback bar ends at 179 frames / 7
seconds and ten frames. I can see that with other / longer contents too
: preview and progress bar don't go to the "real" end of the content
(only 3439 frames with a 2 min 18 seconds 19 frames trailer in /25/fps,
where 3469 expected)
- Here I have used images sequence + one 5.1 wav file. Opened with
Audacity, this sound lasts 9 seconds and exactly 216 frames. DCP-o-matic
seems to find one more frame, and if I cut one frame from the end, it
displays 8 seconds and 24 frames : is that any different from 9 seconds ?
I have noticed another thing that won't show on the picture attached :
- if you change the DCP frame rate, durations are not immediatly
updated, you have to switch between tabs back and forth to see updating.
- there is no warning if sound and number of frames are not same
duration - intended ?
Best regards,
Gérald
