Digital Cinema Communicator for S2 is a Shareware software in the category Communications developed by NEC Display Solutions, Ltd. The latest version of Digital Cinema Communicator for S2 is currently unknown. It was initially added to our database on.
Hi All,I've done a lot of googling, and have yet to come up with a solid answer for this admittedly unusual workflow.In a nutshell, I need to display Rec 709 content from my Mac over DVI on a DCI-P3 projector.My university (San Francisco State) has a DCI-P3 projector (an NEC NC1200C) in its Cinema theatre. Unfortunately, there is no DCP player. The projector has DVI inputs, but no controls for switching the color space between DCI-P3 and Rec.709. When connected to my Mac, it appears like a TV in the Displays pane of System Preferences-it displays a TV icon, and defaults to '1080p' instead of the native 2048x1080, so I think my mac is assuming it's a Rec.709 device.When I run content that I graded on a Rec.709 monitor on the projector via the mac, it looks awful—mostly, it looks very dark. When I use Display Calibration Assistant to adjust the output gamma, I get OK results, but I assume I'd get much better results if I actually did a proper transform into P3.
Is there a monitor ICC that will allow the Mac to properly display color on the projector? I've seen mentions of one included with AfterEffects, can I use it as a display profile? (I should also mention I don't have a copy of AE handy). Or is the proper solution to apply the 709 to P3 LUT to the film in Resolve?Thanks so much for your input! The 'right' way to do this is to connect to the projector with the Digital Cinema Communicator app (DCC) and create a title for Rec. DCC is a Windows app (runs fine in a virtual machine on a Mac, though) that can be downloaded from the projector itself if you can get on the same network the projector is on, find out its IP address, and connect to its internal web server.
You might also need a service code for the projector to get it to let you set up titles.If that's not possible, applying the Rec. 709 to P3 LUT in Resolve should work in theory, but I haven't tested that particular workflow. I have tested feeding Rec. 709 to a cinema projector displaying XYZ color via the Rec. 709 to XYZ LUT in Resolve 10, and that seems to work fine.-Digital Workflow/Colorist,.You should follow me on Twitter.
