2.2 Passwords

You will be prompted to enter a password for various tasks when using CineLister. Your administrator determines the level of security.

Note: Please contact your Administrator for passwords, not Doremi Labs. The following are types of passwords you may be asked for:

Admin (Administrator)

Manager

Root

Figure 3 below is what you will see whenever you are asked for a password:

Figure 3: Password Window

Note: The server will prompt you to the type of password that is needed for a certain task. For example, the authentication required in the window below is “ShowManager” privileges, hence the server will automatically prompt you to the “Manager” username. However, you can also select a different username from the drop-down list as shown in Figure 3 above, depending on the level of security that your administrator has provided to you.

2.3 Software and Firmware Upgrade

Software and Firmware upgrades are provided by Doremi Labs. Doremi will provide you with the necessary software and firmware version upgrade package(s). There are several ways that you can perform the upgrade, which include, but are not limited to; USB, DVD, and FTP.

The most common way to upgrade the software version is from a USB. Doremi will provide you with a link or a file that contains the software upgrade package, download the package onto a USB drive; plug the USB drive into the USB port located on the DC-Post and DC-Post will automatically ingest the package. Please see Section 4 below for instructions on how to ingest.

Note: You must reboot the server before the software and or firmware upgrade package begins to ingest.

To view the current version of the software and firmware running on your server, go to Menu” and select “About.”

The following Figure is what you will see when you have a “Package” ready to be ingested:

3 Ingesting Content

3.1 Ingesting Content

The ingest GUI will only show items that can be supported by DC-Post (e.g. text documents, pictures, power-point presentations, etc. will not appear).

Note: Compositions (CPL's), Key Delivery Messages (KDM's), Doremi License File's (DLM's), and Show Playlists (SPL's) can all be ingested.

3.2 Content Types

Different types of content can be displayed in the Ingest window (see Figure 12 below).

“Reel” icons represent a Composition Package which contain audio-video content (e.g. features, trailers, etc.). See Figure 6 below.

“Speaker and Film” icons represent Individual compositions within a Composition package. See Figure 7 below.

“Film” icons represent Show PlayLists (SPL's), which contain the main feature and trailers. Note: When the SPL is ingested, the ingest GUI will show all of the components that make up the SPL. See Figure 9 below.

“Lock” icons represent Key Delivery Messages (KDM's), which contain the required decryption keys allowing playback of the corresponding CPL's. See Figure 8 below.

4 Ingest Phase

4.1 Ingesting content form a USB Drive

If the content to ingest is on a USB drive, plug the drive into the DC-Post's USB Port and wait for the Ingest window to appear (see Figure 13).

Note: This assumes that the DC-Post has been installed according to the “Hard Disk Drive Installation” Document that ships with the DC-Post.

Select an item by clicking on it.

Click on the “Ingest” button (see Figure 11).

The ingest process will then start.

If an item was already ingested, it will appear in gray as illustrated in Figure 11 below.

To see the progress of items being ingested click on the “Monitor” tab. See Figure 11 below.

You can also select multiple items by clicking the “Ctrl” button and then clicking on the “Ingest” button.

Note: You can playback an already ingested content while ingesting other content. This is not the same as the “Pngest” feature (discussed below), which allows for simultaneous ingest and playback of the same content.

4.4 Pngest

The Pngest feature is available when you are ingesting content over a Doremi remote server or LMS.

Note: The Pgnest feature is available only when ingesting content over a Remote Doremi Server or a LMS, not from a USB or Sata.

When you are ingesting a Composition, you can play it while it is being ingested rather than waiting until the ingest is complete and then playing it. Give the CPL approximately 5-7 minutes to load. You cannot rewind or fast forward during playback, if you want to rewind you have to start from the beginning. You will be able to view the CPL at the rate that it is being ingested (i.e., like a streaming video, hence, there is no need to refresh during playback).

4.4.1 How to Pngest a CPL

If the content you are ingesting is encrypted, you must first ingest a KDM.

Click on the CPL you want to Pngest and click the Pngest button (see Figure 16).

You will be prompted to a window asking you if you really want to Pngest, click “yes” (see Figure 16).

You may be prompted to enter a password (remember if you don't know the password, contact your Administrator and not Doremi Labs, see the Section “Passwords” above for more information).

You can monitor the progress of the Pgnest by clicking on the “Monitor” tab (see Figure 17).

Wait approximately 5-7 minutes until the Pngest is complete.

Go to “CineLister” from the server “Menu” and click on the “Refresh” button.

The CPL will appear in the “Editor” tab.

To begin playing the CPL, go to the “Playback” tab from the CineLister GUI and click play.

Note: The CineLister application, including the “Playback” feature is explained in full detail later in the manual. For a complete overview of CineLister and its functions, including the “Editor, Playback, and Schedule” tabs, see Section “Show Management Using CineLister” below.

6 Show Playlists

A Show Playlist (SPL) is a succession of Compositions (CPL's), Automation Cues and Trigger Cues. SPL's make up the chain of events that account for the playback of a Show. Using CineLister, you can create and edit SPL's.

Types of elements that can be used when creating a SPL:

Audio-visual content (e.g., features, test content, trailers, live, etc.) See Section “Audio-Video Content” below.

Automation cues (Macro automation events). See Section “Automation Cues” below

Trigger cues (events upon which a Macro Automation Cue is executed). See Section “Trigger Cues” below.

6.1Audio-Visual Content

When an audio-visual content is encrypted, an icon is displayed with the content.

Lock Icon with Red minus sign: The required KDM is not available. Thus, the content cannot be played (see Figure 22).

Lock Icon with Green plus sign: A valid KDM is available for that content. Then, this content can be played.

Timer Icon with Orange caution sign: The required KDM is present and will expire in less than 48 hours. You are warned that you will not be able to play the content anymore after expiration of the KDM.
