NPP Projection Report Tuesday 6/15


To do this evening/ was completed: Jerry from DMS was in today and addressed the issues we've been having.

The flat channel is temporarily fixed in 1, although it's likely we're going to need a new ILS board. For now he adjusted the flat channel so that the lens stays in the scope position with the image zoomed and cropped for 1.85. It's not a perfect solution but will certainly do until the board can be replaced.

He fixed the masking automation issue in theater 1. For some reason the GPO trigger for the scope cue was not working, so he switched it to a different output and it works now. For reference the stop on the motor hasn't changed, it's still the #1 button, he just changed the automation trigger behind the rack.

He determined the lighting issue in Theater 2 was something to do with the wiring in the ceiling, so we'll need to have an electrician in. For now I've adjusted the settings so the center lights remain off, with both the sconces and overhang lights at 100% for preshow and at 10% for credits. Please don't change them.

When he comes in with the new ILS board for Theater 1 he'll bring the piece to fix the A/C interlock in Theater 2's projector. For the time being I'll keep an eye on it and retape it if necessary.

He also showed me the web controls for the lights in 4 and 6, and showed me how to adjust the light settings for 3, 5, and 7, which is done on the wall mounted panels in the booth, there are no web controls for these houses. I'll make some adjustments to the preshow settings tomorrow before opening. However there are only two dimmer options in 3, 5, and 7 I believe, so I may have to make preshow and credit lighting the same in those houses.

Presentation Issues:

Preshow Clips/Playlist: Swapped all the playlists in theater 1, since the masking issue is fixed and we no longer need to have the curtains open all the time.

Trailer Updates:

Special Events/ AV set up:

Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Ordered posters for F9, Old, and Stillwater.

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
