Doremi just started supporting TKR (Theater Key Retrieval) and I'm curious if there is already any DCP distributed with a TKR enabled CPL.

Does Version 2.6.4 support TKR?

In theory, from 2.6.3 http://support.doremitechno.org/index.php/news/doremi-notifications/531-doremi-labs-notification-dcp2000-dcp2k4-showvault-new-general-release-sw-v2-6-3-0

Has not installed it yet, but I will be curious to test the TKR feature.
I couldn't find any TKR reference in the CPL of Superman, so I was wondering if anyone knows about a dcp distributed now with it.

I guess this is all supposed to be automated but i have not heard of it being used yet. Looks like the Servers may need to have internet access.

This seems like a great convenience feature and one that I hope is quickly adopted across the industry. (And yes the server will have to be connected to the internet for this to work)

There is some recent reference to TKR on the ISDCF mailinglist. They are getting closer.

TKR is originally a FOX recommendation, and currently FOX seem to be the only studio putting TKR-KDM-URLs in their CPLs on a regular basis. Give it a try next time you receive a FOX DCP.
