Outputs
Use the Outputs section of the Encode Settings tab to define the identity of the DCP and
the location where the DCP is stored after it is generated.
To adjust the output settings:
1. From the Tasks menu, select Encode.
2. Select the Encode Settings tab.
3. In the Composition Name field of the Outputs section, enter a unique name for the
DCP.
4. Beside the Output Folder field, click the button to navigate to the folder
designated as the storage location for the final Digital Cinema Package output. The path
for the selected folder appears in the Output Folder field.
NOTE: In an encoding array, the source files (frames and audio) must be on a drive
mapped with the same drive letter on both the local and remote machines.
This applies to the output folder as well. For example, if an output folder on
the local machine is mapped to F:, the output folder on the remote machine
must also be mapped to F: (see “Encoding Across Multiple Computers
[Remote Machines]”). When encoding with a single machine, use local
drives for the source and output folders for better performance.
5. Click OK to save your settings and exit the Encode Settings screen or click Cancel to exit
the screen without saving any changes.
Each unique composition name generates a new DCP for the output folder. These appear in
the Composition column of the JPEG 2000 Encoder main screen.
