Testing encrypted DCPs and KDMs

wolfgangw edited this page Apr 17, 2013 · 26 revisions

I’m collecting feedback and data about ingest and playback of encrypted signed DCPs and KDMs generated with Cinemaslides or other related free tools. The point being to create — in parallel to proprietary knowledge pools — a publicly available pool of knowledge about the field.

Test reports will be much appreciated. A useful test sequence would include the following steps:

  1. Head over to Downloads to get TONEPLATES-SMPTE-ENCRYPTED, unzip and ingest the encrypted package on your server/media block.
  2. Check server log for error messages.
  3. Either create a KDM targeting your server/media block using Cinemaslides1 or let me make a set for you.
  4. Before ingesting a KDM: Select for playback to confirm the package will not play.
  5. Ingest KDM. If you’re testing a set of KDM formulations ingest and test 1 KDM at a time.
  6. Check server log for error messages.
  7. Select again for playback to confirm the package decrypts and plays back properly.
  8. Send me a little report including model, make, server/media block serial number and software version.

Feedback, corrections, insights, code, as usual, very welcomed and much appreciated. Get in touch

1 Here’s a recipe for rolling your own KDMs for TONEPLATES:
Get the content_keys.zip from Downloads, unzip and run

cinemaslides -v debug --kdm \
--cpl <path to the cpl from TONEPLATES-SMPTE-ENCRYPTED...> \
--target <path to public key certificate of your targeted server/media block> \
--keysdir <path to content_keys> \
--formulation <kdm formulation>

This assumes you have a SMPTE compliant certificate chain in CINEMACERTSTORE/, used here to sign the generated KDM. See make-dc-certificate-chain.rb (and preferrably read it before using it) for a proof-of-concept script to create those certificates.

2 KDM formulations: Transitional 1 (t1), Modified Transitional 1 (mt1), DCI Any (da), DCI Specific (ds)
