However, DCP-o-matic had troubles with our slightly unusual source material (variable frame rate stop-motion). The video was blinking.
So I looked into its source code and it turned out that hacking it into duplicating missing frames instead of injecting black ones was a matter of a single line change.
Now try fixing a thing like that when your Adobe suite is acting up ๐
A film festival has asked to provide the video to screen in a cinema-specific format (DCP), "created using a reliable tool e.g., DCP-o-matic".
Deadline: two days ๐ฑ
My first thought: great, I'm going to spend two days wrestling with Wine and some barely working "industry standard" tooling, am I?
But looking closer, it turned out:
- DCP is a stream of JPEG2000 frames in MXF container and some XML metadata ๐ค
- the cinema expects a ext2-formatted drive ๐ฎ
- DCP-o-matic is GPLv2+ and multiplatform ๐คฉ
#StopKillingGames is about to reach its millionth signature as we speak, a month before the deadline. A tiny, but very necessary step in the right direction.
