1 Introduction

The Doremi Final Cut Pro DCP Plug-In allows users to create Digital Cinema Packages (DCP)
directly from the Final Cut Pro time line using the robust CineAsset encoding algorithms. The
Plug-In can be used to create both 2D and 3D DCPs. Using the JPEG2000 codec and XYZ'
(YCxCz' for 3D) color conversion, you can export directly from the Final Cut Pro time line as an
unencrypted DCI-compliant DCP. Once exported, the DCP will be ready to be ingested into any
standard Digital Cinema Server.
