But there is standardization between commercial theatres. They _all_ take DCP files. DCP files are the 35mm of the New Millennium. Now, there are a lot of screening venues that are not commercial theatres, and that's where the problems start coming in. There is a considerable financial cost up front to deal with DCP files, much as there was thirty years ago to deal with 35mm prints. But, don't say there isn't standardization, because a standard exists and a whole industry uses it. There are a lot of folks who want to screen in nonstandard venues, that's all, and that's understandable but it's an argument to push to get those venues to meet the standard. --scott _______________________________________________ FrameWorks mailing list [email protected] https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks
