-Hello!
-
-
-Building for Linux
-------------------
-
-./waf configure
-./waf
-sudo ./waf install
-
-
-Building for Windows
---------------------
-
-...is quite involved.  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).
