DCP-o-matic

Indeed, this is an ongoing problem ... I have it on my list to try harder to provoke this bug locally so I can try to fix it.

Interesting - I guess that's what happens when you use substandard "amateur" software to encode your DCPs

Could DoM use the video resolution information in the .ASS file to calculate the relative size of the subtitles instead of using a fixed reference point? Perhaps - I think there's still missing information though - I'm not sure how knowing the video resolution helps us to know how many pixels high ...

It might be slightly more accurate to say that DoM does support ASS, but there are some bugs with that support. I'm working on it.

I just did a test and changed a 60pt subtitle in half to 30pt and imported the .ASS file and it displayed on DoM looking the same size as before. Also the relative size of subtitles imported from an ASS file is very large compared to subtitles imported from an SRT subtitle.* Where did you change th...

What size is your 2K frame? 2048x1024?

It is a cool project, indeed. I did some work to use nvjpeg2000 with DoM and it looks promising - the main problems at the moment are that the nvidia libraries don't support 4K decoding, and also for encode there is a detail of the cinema J2K profile that they don't support. This bug in our tracker ...

Thanks for checking. Sadly fixes for most of the ASS problems didn't make it into this release (the changes are here) but it's interesting that Arial black did not work. Do you have a .otf or .ttf file of Arial Black on your system?

On Windows and Linux, yes. On Mac you can just run it from the .dmg without copying the .app anywhere else, if you like.

Hi all, DCP-o-matic 2.16.14 is now available on the test download page. There have been some quite big internal changes to how subtitles are handled, so if anyone is using subtitles I'd be very grateful if you could give it a test! Feel free to report problems here or in the bug tracker . Thanks! Carl
