If you're near Los Angeles County next week, I invite you to visit Long Beach and attend DIY Film Fest, where @holypangolin's short "The Flight of the Quirky Owl" is going to be screened on Sat, Aug 9th ☺️ https://www.diyfilmfest.life/

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 😂

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 😱

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 🤔
- the cinema expects a ext2-formatted drive 😮
- DCP-o-matic is GPLv2+ and multiplatform 🤩

vector2 = vector2 >> 7;
printf("%d\n", vector2[0]); // 1 in both gcc and clang

Aren't you glad that sfghefaes (@dawlkjr27898) has added you to a group conversation on Twitter?

#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.

If you hurry it may be yours 😁 https://eci.ec.europa.eu/045/public/#/screen/home
