Can Xport create REELS in a DCP?

Currently Xport can only create single reel DCPs and cannot create multiple reels in a DCP.

If this feature is imperative to your workflow (which it often is, in the case of feature film) I would suggest you consider the option of also investing in a "packager" which can import the encoded MXFs from Xport and combine them into a new DCP with multiple reels. We do have a packager in the Qube Cinema mastering products line, it is called QubeMaster Wire Edition which can import completed DCPs, preview/play them and then combine multiple reels into a new DCP.

So the workflow would be:

  1. Encode each reel separately in XPort
  2. Import each of these mxf track files into a packager
  3. Play and preview encoded files
  4. Create Reels from them
  5. Preview/play the reels, Check sync, add subtitles if necessary
  6. Combine the reels into a single composition.
  7. Package (no re-encoding necessary) 
  8. Encrypt and Generate KDMs if required.
