| Summary | 0000586: Please force user to actively make a choice of ContentKind | ||||
| Description | The default is now "Test" I belive. I have received a lot of shorts and features to festivals wrongly tagged because of this. Makes life harder for the projectionists. Please consider making an active choice mandatory before being able to start the encoding job. Maybe with some kind of hint of the different choices? | ||||

The default content type starts out at FTR, at least in DCP-o-matic 2, and it can be set in the configuration. There might be a wizard-style interface (on first run) on the way at some point. |
|
|
There are different definitions of the minimum length a film should have to constitute a "Feature". Maybe a reasonable compromise would be 60 minutes? Would it be possible to default to "SHR" (Short) for a DCP project that is under 60 minutes, and "FTR" (Feature) to everything else? |
|
|
Maybe - though we'd need to use this logic where we auto-set the option only if the user hasn't touched it, which is kind of awkward. |
|
|
Maybe just default to SHR if total content length is <60 FTR otherwise? |
