Abstract: As the motion picture industry shifts to a digital distribution model, technology providers are faced with serious challenges in meeting the compute intensive requirements for realtime processing of cinema-quality digital content at both the studio and the theatre. Additionally, the potential to seamlessly integrate local and national advertising content, provide support for rich “alternative” content, and support emerging compression, packaging, and hardware interface standards requires that technology solutions be flexible enough to grow with the Digital Cinema business model as it develops. This paper will discuss how solutions based on a low-cost, massively paralleled “pixel-processing” approach can provide real-time Digital Cinema functions while supporting emerging standards and practices via simple software updates.
