NPP Projection Close 12/25

To do this evening/ was completed: A quiet night on the projection side of things...kept an eye on picture and sound for the majority of the evening and completed some light troubleshooting with the masking in theater 3 (see below)

Presentation Issues:

Preshow Clips/Playlist: Screenwriter continues to glitch, for lack of a better word, and has to be refreshed whenever new content is played and individually viewed from the "Screen" tab

Tested the Nosferatu show playlist in theater 3 before its final round there to make sure the 1.66 masking cues triggered normally and actually moved the curtains to their proper setting (Jack's switching of the regular 1.66 masking cue and the 1.37 or 1.66 cue seems to have resolved this issue of the curtains not moving so I took the liberty of switching the order of each of these in all future playlists for this feature)

Trailer Updates:

Special Events/ AV set up: Splashtop connectivity has been spotty all evening and booths 1 and 4/6 are still greyed out and cannot be remotely connected to

Staff screenings are scheduled for tomorrow morning

Ordering/Receiving (posters & trailers): Additional Captain America: Brave New World posters were delivered and stored behind 3/7

NPP Projection Open 12/28

To do this evening/ was completed: Scheduled 1/3 - 1/9 in LMS. A few manual starts in there. I scheduled those shows just a minute or two after their real start time to get the content transferred, just FYI. Started building the cue sheets as well. Got the first three days done. SE screenings went smoothly.

Projection Admin (and Close) 10/19

To do this evening/ was completed: Real quick - It was a great day! For tonight, I've let MOD know that, since I'm more comfortable staying until most of the last round starts (due to some funky server issues we've been having), I'm going to go see a movie in T2 and can silently text with them if they need anything or should anything go wrong (knocking on wood).  Extremely thrilled to say that all three NewFest shows went very well this morning/afternoon. It was definitely a bit of a magic trick with some overlapping intros/Q&As but having my personal ROS helped so much. Thank you to Desmond, NewFest rockstar.  Desmond and I double checked all shows before doors. Gaffed the wired mics and tested everything. Since one guest for the q&a in T2 wasn't comfortable with the chairs, we swapped our directors chairs for the ones in the bar, which still worked super well with the slides and spots.  Had to ride the mic in trees a bit since everyone's got a differen...

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...
