DKDM Creation Tool Not Working

[zgross]

Hi Everyone,

I'm trying to create a DKDM through DCP-O-Matic but having trouble.

I have my target certificates from Deluxe, I can import those perfectly fine, and DCP-O-Matic can play my DCP Package (which I rendered out from Resolve) perfectly fine.

But when I go to import my CPL file into the DKDM tool, I get a pop-up saying "This CPL contains no encrypted assets"

All the more frustrating is the standalone DCP-O-Matic KDM Creator doesn't even have a space to import a CPL, which I have to imagine is some sort of bug.

I think I've seen and heard many folks here being able to create a DKDM fine with DCP-O-Matic, so I'm not sure what is going on.

Anyone run into this issue and been able to fix? Thanks!

So you made an encrypted DCP in Resolve?

As far as I know, encrypted DCPs can only be created in Resolve using the external EasyDCP plugin, not with the standard built-in/Kakadu DCP encoder that comes since Resolve 15. You can not just create KDMs for any DCP with the KDM Creation Tool. You first have to understand properly how certs, DKDMs, keys, etc. work together and which prerequisites are necessary.

What are these target certficates from Deluxe?
