SMPTE Subtitles

[Hoggins]

Hello everyone,

Could someone post a little example of an xml file to successfully use
in OpenDCP to create MXF subtitle track ?

Thanks in advance !

You'll need a copy of the font, in this case arial in the same
directory as the XML file. Rename the arial font to
3dec6dc0-39d0-498d-97d0-928d2eb78391 so that it matches the uuid in
the XML.

I have not tested subtitles dcps generated with OpenDCP on any
equipment, so I have no idea if it actually works. This example XML is
only theory, so it's about all the help I can provide.

Thanks a lot !

Do you have any tool to create this kind of subtitle ? I'm only able
to create DCsubtiltles, not compatible with SMPTE.

Do you know how to declare this file in ASSETMAP ?

actualy there is an online tool: http://www.michaelcinquin.com/tools/DCP/DCP_subtitling

works with openDCP, little tricky to get there though. i do a lot of DCPs like that.
