Version 2.16.15

This version adds one new feature: an experimental option to export in Prores 4444.

It also fixes some bugs in the disk writer which would result in drives being written that would fail checks with e2fsck and similar tools. The data on the written disks should be readable, but there were errors in how the unused portion of the disk was written.

There is one other small bug fix to improve the match between subtitle sizing in the preview and the final DCP.

Operating system support

From this version onwards, DCP-o-matic no longer supports:

• Windows XP.

If you need to use one of these operating systems please use the 2.14.59 version of DCP-o-matic.

Workflow improvements

• Re-work scaling following excellent insights by Carsten Kurz, described on #1669. Now the scaling of video content is guessed based on its aspect ratio (taking into account pixel aspect ratio) and there is a "custom" option for overriding incorrectly-marked-up content or content which actually needs its shape to be changed.
• Add a new "Advanced settings" dialog for content, accessible from the right-click menu. Move the "use video" checkbox into here, as it feels like excessive clutter to have it in the main video panel.
• Add subtitle analysis so that the outline of all subtitles in a piece of content can be overlaid onto the preview (#1233).
• Add playhead line to timeline (#1563).
• Add option to set project properties from a DCP loaded as content (#1688).
• Avoid unnecessary re-writes of video assets if they are staying the same (#1638).
• Clicking on the audio graph jumps to that position in the film (#1507).
• Put the timecode next to the rewind-to-0 button to help avoid mouse-slips (#1234).
• Allow > 0dB gain per channel in the audio matrix (#1720).
• Add some new keyboard shortcuts for moving around on the timeline.
• Remove the ISDCF metadata dialogue box (#1929); all metadata is now set in the “Metadata” dialogue.
• Fix the initial folder to something sensible when adding content.
• Remember the path used for "add files" (#2049).

Version 2.16.1

New features and major changes

• New “Disk Writer” tool to create DCP drives in EXT2 format from any platform (in beta test).
• Add builds for ARM / Apple Silicon (M1) processors.
• New “Combiner” tool to combine multiple DCPs into one (#1245).
• Various improvements to the stability and speed of the OpenGL renderer.
• Option to ignore video parts of files (#1355 and others).
• Option to set video range (JPEG/MPEG) (#1509).
• Basic handling of overlapping video (#1848).
• Support for CPL metadata and markers.
• Improved DCP verification in the player, and accompanying dcpomatic2_verify command-line tool.
• Compliance with most of the SMPTE DCP Bv2.1 Application Profile.
• New playlist (SPL) editor for the player.
• Basic subtitle export feature.
• Calculate LEQ(m) when analysing audio.
• Add an output audio matrix (#1482).
• Add a new “Add DKDM” dialogue (#1637).
• Support download of certificates from Qube (#1460).
• Allow export with one audio stream per channel.
• Allow specification of audio forensic marking (in KDMs) for some channels only. Default to enabling forensic marking for video and audio (up to and including channel 12) (#1498).
• Checksum network encode requests and replies to protect against network corruption (#1381).
• Allow more complete control over the libdcp/DCP-o-matic metadata written to various places.

Operating system support

From this version onwards, DCP-o-matic no longer supports:

• macOS versions 10.7 (Lion) or earlier.
• Windows XP.

If you need to use one of these operating systems please use the 2.14.57 version of DCP-o-matic.

Workflow improvements

• Re-work scaling following excellent insights by Carsten Kurz, described on #1669. Now the scaling of video content is guessed based on its aspect ratio (taking into account pixel aspect ratio) and there is a "custom" option for overriding incorrectly-marked-up content or content which actually needs its shape to be changed.
• Add a new "Advanced settings" dialog for content, accessible from the right-click menu. Move the "use video" checkbox into here, as it feels like excessive clutter to have it in the main video panel.
• Add subtitle analysis so that the outline of all subtitles in a piece of content can be overlaid onto the preview (#1233).
• Add playhead line to timeline (#1563).
• Add option to set project properties from a DCP loaded as content (#1688).
• Avoid unnecessary re-writes of video assets if they are staying the same (#1638).
• Clicking on the audio graph jumps to that position in the film (#1507).
• Put the timecode next to the rewind-to-0 button to help avoid mouse-slips (#1234).
• Allow > 0dB gain per channel in the audio matrix (#1720).
• Add some new keyboard shortcuts for moving around on the timeline.
• Remove the ISDCF metadata dialogue box (#1929); all metadata is now set in the “Metadata” dialogue.
• Fix the initial folder to something sensible when adding content.
• Remember the path used for "add files" (#2049).
