Summary0001850: Feature request: Export to ProRes from CLI
Description

I usually use FFMPEG to convert DCP to ProRes. However, DCP-o-matic does a better job of it in a few circumstances:

  • 4K DCP export to 2K ProRes
  • Burning in subtitles
  • Export of encrypted DCP using DKDM

DCP-o-matic also seems to be faster than FFMPEG, which is odd as I believe it's just using FFMPEG under the hood. Maybe I'm not using all available threads when decoding in FFMPEG.

Would be amazing if DCP-o-matic's export function was scriptable via CLI.

Basic CLI support for export was added in 2.16.6.
