Projection Report 10/14 Brunch



Presentation Issues:

There were no presentation issues that affected our guests. However, at 1:55 the entire TMS went completely offline. It said that we had no license and the first thing I noticed was that it was not able to see the external hard drive as I was in the middle of trying ingest the Zombieland and Parasite pre shows. Then I looked over and saw that everything was blacked out. I couldn't see playback status, the scheduler, or have any manual control of macros or playback. I immediately opened all IMS screens to see if I could view playback that way and have control and check to see that the automation was still scheduled. Everything appeared to be fine and the next pre-show (scheduled at 2:00) started automatically. I didn't see an obvious TMS contact in the vendor sheets and I already had all the MOD in the booth so Gil called Billy who counseled me to reboot the system. I was just nervous to do that while the movies were seemingly playing back just fine. After rebooting the system, everything was fine and it says we have a month left on our license.

Preshow Clips/Playlist:
I ingested the Zombieland and Parasite pre-shows onto TMS and made the playlists.
Zombieland playlist needs feature.


Trailer Updates: Made new adult trailer pack (10/17) - needs to be teched for volume.
Question: Matthew's email states that The Irishman should be added to the pack on 10/17 but I didn't see it in Kris's trailer list, so for now it has been left out.

Special Events/ AV set up:

Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): The Depeche Mode concert documentary poster came in today.

NPP Projection 11/17 Close

To do this evening/ was completed:v Mandy ingested to T1. Reached out to Vision for new posters. Was placed on hold, which was more an unending cycle of pressing 1 for hold and then being told to press 0 for voicemail or 1 for hold. Point being I left a voicemail requesting new posters. Gave them our account number, location and my cell. Outgoing marquee letters taken down. 11/10 playlists and forecasts deleted, Chicken Run V2 and Christmas Action trailers downloaded and ingested, 11/24 A1 playlists and packs built. Inspected Raising Cain print. It's in good condition, minimal scratching, no splices. Inspection sheet filled out. Transferred Marvels content to T6, as it was missing from the server due to the 1:20 tomorrow being a manual start.

NPP Projection Report 4/6 Open

To do this evening/ was completed: Theater 3 issue happened again, Carly radioed me that the second round preshow didn't start. I was able to restart the projector and put the preshow on about 12 minutes before lights down. Trailers/feature played fine after that. I wrote again to DMS and Jerry said he'll have a list of parts to replace on Monday. For the sake of clarity, here is everything I've gathered about this issue: -When it happens, you won't be able to control playback via the TMS, manually fire automation cues, or access the IMS web GUI at all -Schedules for Theater 3 will display as "KDM missing" and the storage health icon on the Overview page will say "Storage degraded," even though the storage is healthy and KDMs have been uploaded and are active. -This issue prevents the server from validating KDMs (even though they are there and valid), so encrypted content will not play with the server in this state. If the projector goes into this st

Projection Close 12/28 Lillian

To do this evening/ was completed: Hey all. Thanks for the Christmas coverage and for quickly hopping on board to accompany Alec while he's out for a little while - I really appreciate it. We've just about got our schedule sorted, so please remember to take a look to see the changes made.  Presentation Issues: Preshow Clips/Playlist: Double checked that T6 and T6 specific playlists are all set.  Tomorrow! Please get your eyes on When Harry Met Sally just to check sound/image and credits info. Screens this Saturday/Sunday but the keys open up tomorrow. I adjusted the playlist based on the ingest letter (and looked it up online, but the offset is a little different, so you'll want to make sure!) Thanks! Adjust cue sheets if necessary.  Trailer Updates: Special Events/ AV set up: Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Received Drive Away Dolls posters.  Ordering/Receiving (content): We're all good on KDMs at the moment.  Outgoing/Shipping (content): Print/video Ins
