Paul:
Since Miramax mastered this to digital files for the Boeing show at ShoWest, why didn't they supply a digital print for your DLP-Cinema screen? What have you been playing on the digital screen this year? What's coming?

Yes, we will be showing it on DLP.

Wouldn't want technicolor to deliver it to us early though.

We had to tear down the print as soon as it was done with the screening.

Also, we will probably be showing Atlantis on DLP when it comes out.

Paul:

Must you "erase" the data from the QuBit server as soon as your booking ends? Or does the movie stay on the server until you load a new movie? What happens to the DVDs that were used to load the server? Do they stay in the theatre as "backup" if reloading is ever necessary, or are they taken away (for security)?

I guess it depends.

Jekyll and Hyde is still on the player unless it has been loaded with Spy Kids.

TI has generally come in after a week or two and deleted the "program"

There is also a dial up link for Disney or TI personnel to access the unit for doing this also.

You need to have FTP/TELNET access to the box to do anything.

This one is SRD-EX (Surround EX) decodable. Our adaptors picked up the signal every time.
