Playing DCP?

[rvdboom]

I'm a bit lost about the current status of DCP support in VLC.
At the end of 2013, it seemed included in VLC and I could compile it in using the "--enable-dcp" flag in configure.
Now there seems to be a "--enable-asdcp" flag and indeed the "libdcp_plugin.so" libs is built.
But when I try to play a DCP using this command :

vlc -vv dcp://home/vdb/Papy3D/productions/masters_films/DCP/Edmond/EDMOND-ANE_FTR_S_FR-XX_INT_51_2K_XX_20111223_CBD_XX_OV

I get the following output :

Apparently, vlc does not find "access" module for "dcp", while there is one :

Code: Select all

bash-4.2$ ls /usr/lib64/vlc/plugins/access/*dcp* /usr/lib64/vlc/plugins/access/libdcp_plugin.la /usr/lib64/vlc/plugins/access/libdcp_plugin.so bash-4.2$

Is the command wrong or am I missing something?

You're missing one slash.

Yep, stupid me.
I also had an issue with asdcp but did not see that the two problems were different.
After fixing asdcp, it works.
But jpeg2000 decoding seems quite unoptimized. I could not play properly a single DCP, and most of them hang after a few images, even using the "--avcodec-options {lowres=2} --avcodec-threads 4" options.
I have an AMD A8-7700 and can play DCP without issue with EasyDCP Player using Wine, albeit for just 15 secondes, since I just have the demo version.
Well, I guess it will come with time, it's already a great milestone.
Thanks!
