NPP Projection Close 2/20

To do this evening/ was completed: Presentation Issues: A guest in theater 7 requested a closed captions device during the second round (the feature was Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die ) and asked for assistance with it since the captions displayed were for the wrong film. I had it connected to 7 prior to this but went back downstairs, reconnected it, and noticed the issue myself. I switched to theater 3 as an experiment and, weirdly, it had the correct captions being transmitted even though Sirat  was playing in this auditorium.  7 was connected to 3's audio and vice versa. I'm not exactly sure how the signals got crossed as I've never seen this happen before. The round continued without any issues once I made the switch. Could be worth looking into if a rewiring is needed in these rooms.

NPP Projection Report 2/19 Close

To do this evening/ was completed: In addition to Marty and Moment , we also have no more shows of Secret Agent and No Other Choice starting tomorrow, so these posters/marquee letters should get taken down. Presentation Issues:  Preshow Clips/Playlist: No lights down cue in any version of the Sirat playlist. I added for the 2/20 ones since the 2/13 playlist was only being used for the one show tonight. Manually brought them down for tonight's show. Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: American Cyborg: Steel Warrior went well. I didn't see the motor start cue on the second reel so the audience saw a bit of leader. I checked the print at the bench after taking it off the projector and the motor cue was there, but out of frame for 1.85 so it did not appear on screen. Try and check for this when inspecting, for 1.85 the cue should be right by the second sprocket from the top of the frame.

To do this evening/ was completed: Sirat keys open up tomorrow!  Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Adjusted and added all necessary masking/audio cues for Trouble in Paradise,  which looks great. I can see that the DCP for the Singai ad was labeled Shingani (??)...so it was a tad bit confusing, but that is the correct video. Mic tested! I added a stand and neatly put the mic up and off to the side.  Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up:  Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Ordering/Receiving (content): Downloaded and ingested the Satoshi 15min preshow Kat sent the other day. This is for Perfect Blue.  DCP'd and ingested all of Desmond's slides for March.  We received the video files for the Dark Room Shorts, the slide of which we still have on the LMS so let's keep it there. I downloaded all the videos files to a folder labeled DarkRoomShorts_2026 on the preshow/trailers drive. Currently, I have Nun's Beach transcoding to the Share...
