Has anyone out there made use of the content from Cinetize ?

As a test, I downloaded a free package called ABCinema.

It shows up as ingestible content on the Christie IMB, and seems to ingest OK. But it doesn't show up in the content list for programming.

Just wondered if anyone has successfully used Cinetize content.

I use it and it shows up in my list of content.

Although I haven't used that particular clip, I have downloaded & played Cintize content
and never had any problems with it. Maybe something got corrupted in your download.

When we first went digital we used their stuff, until we got our own titles... One title didn't work, however when i re-downloaded it was fine

Could it be listed under an unexpected category?

We've used quite a few of the Cinetize clips but never the one mentioned here.

You didn't say what server you have, David, but you must have a function somewhere that will list all the content on your server. Just find the file name and look at what category it's listed as (FTR, TRL, SHR, ADV or whatever).

If it's not on that list, the file must be corrupted. Try another download.

I've downloaded another free clip from Cinetize, so I'll give it a try when I get to the theatre tonight.

Weird, the previously ingested "invisible" content showed up last night in the content list. The projector/IMB had been powered off in the meantime, so maybe the reboot did it.
