If you have a STEREO DCP ???

We were getting this for stereo DCP - that is okay

Step One you need to export a 5.1 2K or 4K file in AVID or Premiere

AVID - How to Make a 2K 5.1 Surround Sound QuickTime Using Your Surround Sound Mix - Use for DCP Screening

Adobe Premiere Pro - How to Make a 2K - 5.1 QuickTime using your Surround Sound Mix - Use for DCP Screening

Open Davinci Resolve Studio

B

click on "New Project"

Name the project and click on "Create"

Click on Media Tab

Find the clip with the 5.1 interleaved audio that was exported


Right click it and choose "Add into Media Pool"

Choose to Change the frame rate

Click "Change"

Next - Go to the Edit Tab

If you have a .mxf that AVID exported it is a surround file but we have to tell Davinci that it is 5.1


If your file is not an .mxf then skip the next 4 steps and go to creating a timeline

MXF Only

- Right click the MXF File and choose >Clip Attributes

MXF Only 

Go to the Audio Tab

Choose Format 5.1 and Tracks 1 and choose Add

MXF Only 

Next click on the trashcan to delete tracks 1-6 mono tracks

MXF Only 

When all that is left is the 5.1 track then click on OK

Now that the .mxf file is setup correctly

Everyone follow the rest of the workflow

Right click in the Media Pool area

>Choose >Timeline>CreateNew Timeline

Set the Timeline to be 1 Video Track

1 audio track that is 5.1


Uncheck Empty Timeline

Click on "Create"

Click on the "Gear" Icon to set the correct aspect ratio for the timeline

Choose Master Settings


We have a "flat" DCP 1998 x 1080 so

make the timeline resolution 1998 x 1080


Same as if you had a 2048 x 858 Scope DCP



Click on "Save"

Check Image Scaling

Use this only if someone has given you a file that is not scope or flat


Stretch Frame to all corners or try all the input scaling settings

to make sure you are scaled right

One Note if you need to scale your file in the timeline

Click on the upper left hand window and choose Inspector



Here you can scale the image if you have a flat to scope conversion

In other words if you have a flat DCP playing at a scope venue you can

scale it up and loose a little of the top and bottom .110

Next go to >Fairlight>Bus Format

Choose Format 5.1


NOT 5.1 FILM!!


Click on OK

Go to the Deliver Tab

Choose Custom


Click on the Video Tab

Choose to Export Video


Format DCP

Codec Kakadu JPEG 2000

Type 2K DCI Scope or Flat

Resolution is usually auto detected but make sure it

matches your Project Master Settings
