Re: Barco Projector not showing subtitle VF packages

Since Dolby CineAsset Player is playing the DCP with subtitles and everyone is burning the subtitles in, if I was you, and since I can't demux the subtitles' files, to check the fonts, I would investigate the matter on the projector and server. How recent are the software versions of them and whethe...

Re: Cannot inject my DCP into the cinema server

Assetmap and Volindex without XML file extension 'means' Interop. [...] You are correct, Carsten, that is indeed the case, but with the description on the file browser saying "AliFileCheck.File", no one can say for sure whether those files are missing the extension completely or whether t...

Re: Cannot inject my DCP into the cinema server

The extensions of the files being omitted doesn't help a lot. (assetmap and volindex were indeed with no extention, or not?) The DCP naming, even less. Yet, if the error seems to come up on the PKL file, where the hash info of the files resides, it is highly likely that there are files in the packag...

Re: KDM CLI and character encoding issue

Judging by experience, servers and media blocks may be gravely affected. I haven't been witness of software needed to be reinstalled, but I have been witness of media block (IMB to be precise) needing to reboot the projector (IMBs power supply) twice, and the server being incapacitated due to discon...

Re: DOP-o-matic DiskWriter adding more than one DCPs

Since it seems that the DCPs are small (no files bigger than 4GB), probably a FAT32 format would work universally as well. (MBR.)

Re: Is certificate expiration a problem ?

I guess that would run via dcpomatic2_create. Is that -more or less- something that is covered by combining existing set of commands, or something to be implemented? I guess that such matters arise, as content and technology are getting older. Not only with DCP certificates, but with media blocks' o...

Re: Free software for making ext 3 drives on windows

Yep. It was the original size up until the appearance of EXT4, where it doubled. Quite a few drives formatted during the last decade (or a bit more) on linux systems (mke2fs) with the -I setting on default (omitted) would be 256 though. Especially the closer we get to January 20th of 2038. As except...

Re: Stable release: 2.16.5 Issues

You are one step ahead Carsten.
I had to go to the download page for 2.16.8 and change/partially rename the download link to 2.16.9 to download that version...
Edit: Now I see you were referring to the test version not the stable one.

Re: White frames before end credits

[...] When I play it in DCP-o-matic player though, the subtitles (open) are always on the screen and there is no way to turn them off. [...] That is the way it is meant to be. A DCP with subtitles has no way to turn them off. That is the case on a player as well. If you want to have it without, you...
