KDM generating

Post by RedDevil1878 »

Hello guys,

1st thank you for briliant freeware as DCP-o-matic is, it saved me a lot of time instead of using command line.
2nd sorry for my english, my native language is Slovak and I am from small town here in Slovakia.
3rd and finally, maybe stupid question but I cant find answer or maybe dont understand:
Can you generate KDM for movie or DCP that is not yours? I work at small cinema and we have some isues from time to time and KDM doesnt arrive at time.
For example we already screened movie: Schindler list and we are screening it tomorow, but KDM didnt came, is there any way to create KDM with old KDM file, my server certificate, or it is just impossible ? * this is realy just example.

Thank you
carl

Hi,
I'm afraid this isn't possible. You would need to decrypt the existing KDM, which requires a private key hidden inside your server/IMB (which you cannot get).

oh, ok then, I had hope that somehow its possible because waiting for KDM to last minute is sometime stressful.
Anyway, thank you very much have a nice day.
