DCP stands for Digital Cinema Package. In A DCP, we get set of files representing digital moving-image content i.e. picture, sound, subtitles & metadata, packaged on a hard-drive for playback on a Digital Cinema server system.

So DCP or Digital Cinema Package is a set of files representing digital moving-image content i.e. picture, sound, subtitles & metadata, packaged on a hard-drive for playback on a Digital Cinema server system. It is designed to be the digital equivalent of a 35mm film print. DCP’s are created following the strict guidelines set out in the Digital Cinema Initiatives (DCI). This is done to insure compatibility with all Digital Cinema equipment.

* You will get all facilities of camera and play back instrument  in a this Cinema Package.
* Low cost.
