I just recently moved to another theatre and their way of removing old trailers from movies is seriously [fu]

up. I have a couple of ideas, but I was just wondering how everyone else did this. How do you remove trailers and/or add new trailers to movies that are already on the platters. FYI, I have Christie AW3 platters, and some Neumade build-up tables incase that info is necessary. Thanks in advance. =o)

I usualy just build new trailers onto a ring. Then I rip out the one on the platter. If the new trailer ring doesnt fit into the pring then i just kinda angle it and let it sit a little raised. Splice and tada.

I prefer to just change out one trailer at a time though, this is pretty much the same thing as above. I dunno - ignore everything i just said... its late and im not making sense.
