QubeMaster Preview provides users of QubeMaster Xport and QubeMaster Xpress with a means to play back DCPs directly from their original location on the local drive, with a useful “ingest-in-place” option that removes the need to copy large media files multiple times. Preview can ingest a DCP along with its KDM and simulates digital cinema server playback of encrypted, non-encrypted, as well as stereoscopic DCPs.
“Users were asking us for a simple and inexpensive way to preview mastered DCPs on their PCs,” said Eric Bergez, director of sales and marketing for Qube Cinema. “With QubeMaster Preview clients can use a proven professional DCP QC player without having to purchase a complete mastering package or expensive DCI equipment.”
