I saw the film in both DLP and 35mm in a Manhattan theatre. In terms of color, both presentations were comparable - they both lacked blacks.
I noticed that, too. Everything just runs out to Midnight Blue. Maybe that's why Lucasfilm was doing that whole screen brightness awareness campaign for EP3, so everyone could see the pretty blue.

Michael,

Look into the GPIO port on the DP50...you can set up 8 more macros there.


Thanks for the tip! I will definitely look into that as soon as I can spare some time!
Have you used the General Purpose I/O in a similar setting where the additional macros were user-accessible? Spontaneously, the only idea that comes into my mind to make that possible would be to build a little panel with extra pushbuttons to make the macros selectable via the GPIO.

Michael...no but I'm about to. I have an installation with a Crestron system. I want several of the predefined Macros that will never change (for general purpose, not DCinema) to always be there.

I've checked with Barco and they say it will/does work. I plan to have the 4 macro buttons on the front be there for temporary or feature specific Macros with the day-to-day ones be on the GPIO.
