You need to build (or download) all the dependencies. -I'll put my scripts up at some point. - - -Dependencies ------------- - -You will need these libraries: - - libdcp (from http://carlh.net/software/libdcp) - FFmpeg version 0.9.x or higher - libtiff - boost thread and filesystem - libopenjpeg 1.5.0 or higher - wxWidgets - libsndfile - libssh - - -Documentation -------------- - -There is a manual available at http://carlh.net/software/dcpomatic -The DocBook source for this is in doc/manual. - - -In a nutshell -------------- - -The `dcpomatic' program is a GTK front-end which is probably easiest -to use. It will create a directory for a particular project, and write -its data to that directory. The basic approach is: - -"File->New"; specify a directory. -Fill in the fields in the window (most importantly the `content' field: - specify your video, and the `Name' field: give your project [and hence DCP] - a name.) -Move the slider to see thumbnails; adjust crop if necessary. -Select "Jobs->Make DCP" and go and make a really strong cup of tea. -The DCP will be written to the project's directory; copy this to your - media server and ingest. - -The `Format' field dictates what size your image will be: - -- 4:3 within Flat: 1.33:1 images inside a flat (1.85:1) frame; play - back using the DCI 1.85 / DCI Flat preset on your projector. -- Academy: 1.37:1; play using DCI 1.37 if you have such a thing. -- 16:9 within Flat: 1.78:1 images inside a 1.85:1 frame. -- Flat: 1.85:1 images to the DCI spec. -- Scope: 2.39:1 images to the DCI spec. - - -Server/client -------------- - -Running the `servomatic' program on a remote machine will make it -listen on port 6192 (by default) and process requests from a dcpomatic -instance. This has been written with no thought to security, so don't -do it over the public internet! The connection will probably need to -be 1 Gb/s to make it worthwhile. - -To tell the client about available servers you will need to go to -Edit->Preferences and add the server's IP address and the number of -parallel threads that the server should execute (make it equal to the -number of CPUs or cores). - - - -Problems --------- - -Email me at cth@carlh.net in the first instance. - - -Carl Hetherington -August 2012 +Please see [dcpomatic.com](http://dcpomatic.com/) for details. |
