What is a CPL?

Post by hamed1363 »

I have been trying to figure this out for a couple days now and nothing seems to work.... I'm trying to make KDMS for a encrypted DCP I made within DCP o matic. I was given a .pem and .pem.leaf files from the theater that this DCP will be played at. when I add the cinema, add screen and attach a certificate, the pull down menu on the CPL is blank and won't let me create the KDMS... I am not sure what that is or where I get it from. is that something the theater needs to provide me with?

any help or suggestion would be much appreciated.

You need to have the project open which you used to create that specific encrypted DCP/CPL. After you created the DCP, the CPL list will be populated, and you may create a KDM. In general, it is a good idea to also create a DKDM immediately after you created an encrypted DCP.
