Multiple files in one DCP?

Post by premwong »

Is it possible to create a DCP with seperated-files, but not burning it into one, just make it play in order when open the DCP?

Cause I once have tried making a DCP from separated-files, but it seemed like DCP-o-matic was burning them into one and it took so long to finish exporting.

'Burning into one' is mandatory for every DCP you make. Some type of input files (DCI compliant MXF files) may make the creation of a DCP faster because they don't have to be compressed, but there is no way to use other input files immediately as part of a DCP.
