Using the DCP and Self KDM
4.1 Configurations for a Self KDM
The necessary configurations to create a self KDM have to be made
during the preparations of the system and its software:
Once these settings are made, the self KDM will be created during the
generation of the DCP. It will be stored at the same location as the other
files of the DCP (normally with the file name KDM_self_*.xml). This
file will then be used when loading the encrypted DCP on the DVS sys-
tem for which it has been created, for example, for quality checks.
1. During the general preparations for a DCI Mastering (see section
“Configuring the System for a DCP Creation” on page 2-25)
some settings have to be made in the Configuration Tool (tab
Defaults » group DCI): In the field Certificate of the area Self
KDM you have to enter the path to the file (*.cer) that holds
the public key of the DVS DCI Mastering system where the DCP
should be loaded.
Figure 4-1: Setting the public key for a self KDM
This public key file can be found either already stored in the in-
stallation directory of the DVS software on the respective system
or on a separate CD-ROM.
Because the settings on the Defaults tab are general settings of
the DVS software, they will be set and available for each initial-
ized new project. This way you do not have to configure the path
and file name of the public key file of the respective system again
when creating other DCPs in the future.
2. In the KDM settings during the configurations of a DCP creation,
you have to activate the generation of the self KDM. For this en-
able the check box Create a KDM for current Clipster (see sec-
tion “KDM” on page 3-18 and section “Finalize Settings – KDM”
on page 5-10).
Figure 4-2: Activating the creation of the self KDM
The described procedures to create a self KDM are available for
convenience reason: You have to set it only once and its gen-
eration can be turned on or off via the check box described
above. Anyway, a self KDM is just another KDM, only that it is
made for a DVS DCI Mastering system. If wanted, you may
create a self KDM the same way as any other KDM.
