6.1.2 Creating a 3D DCP
When your project is properly prepared for 3D (see section “Preparing
a 3D DCP” on page 6-2), you can start the creation of the DCP as de-
scribed in chapter “Digital Cinema Delivery Tool” on page 3-1.
For the creation of a stereoscopic DCP there will be the Stereoscopic
output settings items available in the digital cinema delivery tool. They
can be found in the settings pane of the delivery format configuration
step (see section “Delivery Format” on page 3-13):
Figure 6-2: Configuring the stereoscopic output for a DCP
To create a stereoscopic DCP the check box of the Stereoscopic out-
put settings items must be activated. With the combo box to the right
you can then configure the output type of the 3D DCP. Because the in-
terleaved 3D clip is the native format for a stereoscopic DCP, it must be
set to 3D Interleaved stream. With this the DCP will be created
as a stereoscopic DCP.
At the delivery creation configuration step the digital cinema delivery
tool will show you for the video assets the sources of the left and right
eye clips separately, thereby allowing you to confirm the contents of
the 3D DCP (see also section “Delivery Creation” on page 3-20):
Figure 6-3: The assets of a 3D DCP
A stereoscopic DCP can also be created manually via finalizing
(see section “Creating a DCP Manually” on page 5-7 as well
as the “CLIPSTER 3D/Stereoscopy” supplement user guide).
