Topic: Open DCP vs Clipster
Hi,
I'm currently trying to create a DCP with open DCP and I'm having some questions regarding the whole process. What I'm currently doing is a comparaison between DCP created using the cloister (which is a tested and proven workflow) versus DCP created in Open DCP. Basically, both DCP seem to be fairly similar (which is what I'm aiming) but I seem to have some small difference that I'm not sure is really problematic but just want to verify to make sure.
First, as anyone tried to create DCP with a ProRes source file? If so, is there anything we should be aware of (whether on the tiff seq creation or the Jpeg 200 conversion) to make sure that we keep the color space intact through the process?
Second, regarding the XML that Open DCP generates, there seem to be somme difference from what Clipster is generating and I was wondering if those differences could create some issues. I'll give you some example here, but if you want, I can send both cloisters and open DCP xmld so you can take a look.
xmlns: using Clipster we get xmlns="http://www.digicine.com/PROTO-ASDCP-AM-20040311# in both volume index and Asset Map, while in Open DCP it is xmlns="http://www.smpte-ra.org/schemas/429-9/2007/AM">
In the Asset Map, clipster seems to have an Annotation field while Open DCP doesn't seem to have none. Also, the Creator block seem to come before the volume count in Open DCP while it seems to come after the Issuer in Clipster. Asset Map created by Open DCP have a Offset field in Chunk Block while Clipster have none.
CLP and PKL: Those XML doesn't contain any Signers or Ds: Signature block while they do in Clipster.
My question is, are those difference irrelevant or could they be causing some issues on servers (ex: Doremi)
Thanks a lot
