Author Topic: Renaming a DCP Kris Verhanneman Expert Film Handler Posts: 182 From: Belgium Registered: Dec 2009 posted 01-26-2010 04:14 PM                     Is there a way to change the name of a DCP? Today I recieved 4 clips with very strange names. I would like to change the name that is shown on my (dolby) server. Somebody any idea how I can do this? I still have the original files so I can reimport them if needed.  |  IP: Logged Olivier Lemaire Expert Film Handler Posts: 118 From: Paris, Ile de France, France Registered: Jan 2010 posted 01-27-2010 07:35 PM                        afaik, you can't rename them (changing the ContentTitleText) without having to rewrapp them, as checksums on the CPL file will not more be consistent.  |  IP: Logged Todd McCracken Master Film Handler Posts: 263 From: Northridge, CA, USA Registered: Mar 2008 posted 01-28-2010 03:22 PM                    http://digitalcinemanamingconvention.com/ This might help decipher them. But no, you cannot change the actual name, though once you figure it out you can name the associated play list whatever you want. If it is not to spec you can ask them to do so in future releases. It can be confusing, but a heck of allot better than what was before, that being nothing.  |  IP: Logged
