To do this evening/ was completed: Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Snow Day went very well. Print has been rewound and projectors cleaned. Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Ordering/Receiving (content): Outgoing/Shipping (content): Print/video Inspection: Asset tracking doc updated/checked?: Maintenance/cleaning: Fixed the closed caption settings for T3 and T7 so the captions actually correspond to the correct auditorium number on the CaptiView.

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.

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. Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Ordering/Receiving (content): DCP...
