DOLBY INTROS JPEG 2000 D-CINEMA MASTERING SOLUTION

The unit will be offered as part of a complete equipment rental, training and support package.

As studios release more digital content in the JPEG 2000 format, post facilities will need the proper mastering resources to create digital movie files for distribution to cinemas. The SCC2000’s suite of software offers a set of tools needed to take a Digital Cinema Distribution Master (DCDM) and quickly produce final digital cinema distribution files, known as Digital Cinema Packages (DCPs), for easy distribution to cinemas via satellite, fiber or physical media.

The SCC2000 is designed to work as a standalone unit or can be integrated into current post production and DI systems, enabling efficient 2K and 4K JPEG 2000 encoding. The option for generating secure keys offers key delivery message (KDM) creation and management via the Cosmos digital cinema database, operated by Dolby content-protection subsidiary Cinea.

The solution offers a clear and simple graphical user interface and will begin shipping in Q1 of 2007.
