Author Topic: Doremi DCP-2000 with dolphin B board Jose Angel Velasco Film Handler Posts: 34 From: St.Feliu de llobregat Registered: Mar 2008 posted 06-21-2016 02:23 PM                        I have an older Doremi DCP-2000 server, with a Dolphin B Board. I can connect this server with a Barco DP2K-10s series 2 projector? I tried to connect it to this projector, but I don't have image.  |  IP: Logged Marco Giustini Film God Posts: 2713 From: Reading, UK Registered: Nov 2007 posted 06-21-2016 03:03 PM                     it should work. What versions are you running and did you properly add the projector in the device manager? I'm assuming you have an enigma in the S10?  |  IP: Logged Leslie Hartmier Expert Film Handler Posts: 100 From: Edmonton, Alberta, Canada Registered: Jul 2012 posted 06-21-2016 03:17 PM                     Is your enigma board active? Is it a brand new machine? If not, when was the machine last plugged in? If the projector is not plugged in approximately every six months, the enigma board will fail. More information is good information!  |  IP: Logged Jose Angel Velasco Film Handler Posts: 34 From: St.Feliu de llobregat Registered: Mar 2008 posted 06-21-2016 04:59 PM                        Is a new projector, that works perfect with a USL CMS-2200. We want the Doremi as a backup server form film festivals. The porjector is new, and has an enigma board. The first time that the projectors arrives, the enigma board was discharged, and the projector has an error of "TI link decryptor error", but Barco sended us a new enigma board, that I think works fine. The marriage is correct, and don't appears any error on communicator. The doremi has the firmware 2.92, and the software 2.6.4-0. The software and firmware versions of the projector, are the latest availables from Barco. TI: 4.3.448, software 1.7.93, linkdecryptor 1.6.22 I think that the configuration of the projector in the device manager is correct. Brand Barco, type Series 2, and theIP adress of the projector. The connection test says that the connection is correct, and I can download the logs from the projector, but the macros of the barco are not transmitted to the doremi. I upgraded the Linkdecryptor to the version 1.8.24, but I don't test nothing at this moment.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 06-21-2016 10:01 PM                     Are you sure the macro is configured correctly for that input? That's the most common issue I see when everything else seems ok... Usually the input device is not set right or some other aspect of the macro. Also, it would seem that any server with a Dolphin board in it is not very desirable to use at all taking in to account the number of boards that are dying these days...

There is nothing wrong with a Dolphin board Mark. That's just you trolling again.  |  IP: Logged Jose Angel Velasco Film Handler Posts: 34 From: St.Feliu de llobregat Registered: Mar 2008 posted 06-22-2016 12:51 AM                        I think the dolphin board works well, because I tested this server with a Nec NC 2500 series 1 projector, a few months ago. I tried different settings for the input. In the "port selection" is selected "A+B", in the "mode", I tried the two possible modes "4:4:4 10-bits/color" and "4:4:4 12 bits/color", an in "Scan type" I trued all types, but I think the correct is "Progressive".  |  IP: Logged Jose Angel Velasco Film Handler Posts: 34 From: St.Feliu de llobregat Registered: Mar 2008 posted 06-22-2016 02:24 AM                        I'm viewing the sys-status of the enigma board with the "ICP and Enigma Control Program", and appears: Link 0 - Decryption error Link 1 - Decryption error Link 2 - Decryption not active Link 3 - Decryption not active  |  IP: Logged Stephan Shelley Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 854 From: castro valley, CA, usa Registered: Nov 2014 posted 06-22-2016 09:02 PM                     I would double check the projector settings in the device manager on the Doremi. I think there is a test connection button there. Make sure it connects okay.  |  IP: Logged Marco Giustini Film God Posts: 2713 From: Reading, UK Registered: Nov 2007 posted 06-23-2016 01:53 AM                     Also make sure you install enigma version 1.8 ASAP! As it's been said, try the connection on the device manager. Also check what the diagnostic tool says.  |  IP: Logged Stephan Shelley Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 854 From: castro valley, CA, usa Registered: Nov 2014 posted 06-23-2016 02:06 AM                     Make sure it is set for Barco series 2 projector in device manager.  |  IP: Logged Dave Macaulay Film God Posts: 2321 From: Toronto, Canada Registered: Apr 2001 posted 06-23-2016 12:35 PM                     All good ideas (except the one about Dolby-Remies being crap for using Dolphin boards). - confirm you set the server device manager projector entry for Barco series 2, the projector IP address is correct (and on the same network segment as the server!), and that it's enabled. Try the "Test" button, it should give "Logging In" then a list of stuff if it's OK. - 2D input file should be 292 Dual (or 292 A+B) with 12 bit 4-4-4 colour. - I believe the Enigma only reports encryption status that makes sense when it's decrypting - playing back an encrypted DCP. - You should install LD v1.8.24 asap. You can do this from Communicator or with the ICP/Enigma control program. The package is on the Barco tech site. - Current 10S software is v10.8.100  |  IP: Logged Marco Giustini Film God Posts: 2713 From: Reading, UK Registered: Nov 2007 posted 06-23-2016 06:28 PM                     Hi Dave, It's 1.08.100 but shouldn't make a huge difference with 1.7.93, it seems more 6E-focussed.  |  IP: Logged Jose Angel Velasco Film Handler Posts: 34 From: St.Feliu de llobregat Registered: Mar 2008 posted 06-25-2016 03:33 AM                        I upgraded the projector to v10.8.100 and the enigma to v1.8.24. I tested with a Dolby DSS100 server, and the configuration of the projector is correct. I see image with the dolby server. Returning to the dorami server. The test button on the device manager shows this: But the diagnostic tool shows this: Video watermark philips 3.2, not CineLink 2 TLS as mandatory for Series 2 projectors. I think the Dolphin-B board don't have CineLink 2 TLS. Someone can confirm this?  |  IP: Logged Dave Macaulay Film God Posts: 2321 From: Toronto, Canada Registered: Apr 2001 posted 06-25-2016 05:30 AM                     The watermark version is not related to the cinelink version. Watermarking adds crap to the image (and/or sound, but you don't have sound watermarking) to identify the projector, date, and time an off screen recording was made. Cinelink is encryption on the image data over insecure links like the dual SDI that this server uses. I don't recall ever seeing Philips watermarking but there are a few types. Doremi used Thomson before developing their own system but probably used Philips previously. You would have to ask Doremi about what it supports. Note that the Dophin B is obsolete, no longer supported by Dolby/Doremi, and should have been replaced years ago. Possibly its retirement and the adoption of the Dolphin DCI board was related to TLS?  |  IP: Logged
