Temp file from DCP eating up HD space

Hey, So I neglected to set the proper output source for my test DCP and it wrote it to my documents folder on my startup drive (Mac OS 10.12.6) after trashing the completed DCP and restarting the computer several times the 134GB of space has not returned to my Startup drive. I am assuming that there...

How - Audio / Video separate DCP's

Hey there, So I wanted to try Resolve's new codec for DCP export and I thought it worked fine however my 5.1 audio was messed up and audio was only coming out of the center channel, So then I decided to use my ProRes 8ch master and map the 5.1 audio using DCP-o-Matic and the audio came out great HOW...

Re: Copying DCP best practice QUESTION

If that PC guy isn't able to answer these questions, you should not let him do the job ;-) Ha! I haven't asked him yet... I wanted to go in with all the answers before hand :D this speaks more to my fear of what I don't know about PC's than anything... So from what I can understand from your answer...

Re: Copying DCP best practice QUESTION

Copying DCP best practice QUESTION

Re: exFAT seemed to work, but...

OK so if I went with Tuxera I am going to format it NTFS and NOT ext2 or ext3? And I did go ahead and download Fuse and FUSE-ext2 and install them however I can't find any information on how to use these systems to format a drive...

Re: exFAT seemed to work, but...

Right now mainly festivals. 1 film at a time. (we have already projected at several fests of varying size with our DCP we had made) We may also be looking for limited theatrical run in major cities but this isn't something I am going to be doing often. Just something I will want to do with each of t...

Re: DCP verification player

Hey Carsten, Well when I listen to it with headphones in easyDCP in some parts the audio sounds distorted a bit. I went back to D-o-M and looked at the audio waveform graph and it looks like the channel assignment is "correct".. But am now concerned as to if the distortion is due to channe...
