Digital Cinema Delivery Tool
In the settings pane select the delivery type that you want to create by
activating one of the available radio buttons. When finished you can go
to the next configuration step with the button NEXT.
Depending on the selected delivery type there are different configura-
tion steps required. The following explains shortly the available delivery
types and shows the configuration steps that have to be performed for
each.
’DCDM’
This option creates a DCDM from a DSM, i.e. a sequence of TIFF image
files in 16 bit X’Y’Z’ (see also section “Digital Cinema Distribution Mas-
ter (DCDM)” on page 2-3). For this the following configuration steps
are necessary:

’JPEG2000’
This option creates JPEG2000 compressed data optimized for the digital
cinema either from a DSM or DCDM in a single step, i.e. a sequence of
JPEG2000 files in 12 bit X’Y’Z’ (see also section “JPEG2000” on
page 2-3). For this the following configuration steps are necessary:

’Master DCP without KDM’
This option creates an unencrypted DCP (e.g. for trailers or advertise-
ments) either from a DSM, a DCDM or digital cinema compliant
JPEG2000 data in a single step (see also section “Digital Cinema Pack-
age (DCP)” on page 2-4). Afterwards this DCP can be used as a master
For the last three options an already created DCP is required
and, in case the DCP is encrypted, a self KDM for the DCP.
If an MPEG compression is selected, the step to set a source
type is not required.
For some particulars about the creation of a DCDM see section
“Color Space Conversions” on page 6-5.
