Still DCP's have no assetmap

Post by cineko »

It seems that DCPomatic when it produces 10 second DCP's from still images is only producing 2 x MXF files in the output package and no assetmap or other files. As a result my TMS does not 'see' these files and I can't ingest them. DCP's produced from video clips are fine.

If there's no other files it suggests something went wrong during the DCP creation. Can you attach the "log" file from inside your project, or send it to carl@dcpomatic.com ?

In the same place you found your DCP, in a file called "log"

Must be specific to your installation. I create loads of 10s stills from single PNGs every week and all our DCPs are complete and ingest fine.

My guess would be either checksum issues (on the computer running DCP-o-matic) or copy issues (if it copies to the TMS automatically).
The latter seems to me more probable, just because the original poster says that the TMS does not 'see' the packages and doesn't know where the project folder with the logs resides.
