Using the DCP and Self KDM
4.6.4 Delivery Creation
At the configuration step to specify the delivery creation the digital cin-
ema delivery tool shows you the content that will be created (see also
section “Delivery Creation” on page 3-20):
Figure 4-7: The content that will be created
When creating a supplemental DCP, the list box in the area DCP audio/
video assets indicates the reels and assets that will be generated with
activated check boxes. The check boxes of assets that are mandatory
for the supplemental DCP will appear dimmed and cannot be excluded
from the creation process. Assets that are optional for the creation of
the supplemental DCP can be deselected. By selecting check boxes that
were initially deactivated, you can copy content from the master DCP
to the supplemental DCP during the creation process, e.g. to create a
DCP that is self-sustained and independent from the master’s content.
If these assets are left deactivated, the master DCP will be needed to
load the supplemental DCP.
The supplemental DCP can be created at any location you like. Anyway,
when creating a supplemental DCP that requires the material of the
master DCP, it should be stored in a subfolder of the master DCP. Oth-
erwise the references of the supplemental DCP to the original material
would be invalid (when loading such a supplemental DCP with the DVS
software, you would be asked for their location).
After clicking on the respective button in the digital cinema delivery tool
the supplemental DCP will be created according to your settings.
