Download Stereoscopic Player for Windows, as once you create your DCP, you'll be able to preview it on Windows to make sure your color space is correct, before sending your DCP to the theatre.

Scope is 2048x858, and you'll want to set that in the export window.  Are you on Windows?

Is your timeline set up for Scope?  2048x858?  You also have the full version of Resolve, correct?

I could tell by the images right away that something was wrong, as they should look like the below

That's what the proper conversion looks like.  Are you exporting for Flat or Scope, as you haven't chosen one.

Can you post a before and after snapshot?

Hey @BHARAT KHANNA

Great question.  First, when you've exported your master, are you seeing it XYZ color space?  You'll know as the colors will look all muted in whatever player you're viewing the DCP in.  Also, are you mastering the DCP in Resolve, or exporting your master file, then creating the DCP in another application?  Let me know, and I'll try to help troubleshooting.

Hey Adrian,

Your offline editor needs to provide you with a two channel stereo mix of the locked offline, whether the audio has a final mix or not, for you to use as your reference.  Don't worry about whatever came in with the XML file.  Unlink it and delete it.  Have him/her WeTransfer it to you so you can get it ASAP.

Hey Adrian,

Ahhh....the age old question.  Interlace or progressive. Here are some questions you need to know from the client/offline editor:

1. What was the format of the original project
2. What format are you delivering
3. Is this a multi-rate project?

If you're saying that everything was shot 1080 50i, all your footage should be upper field dominant (I'm basing this on 1080i 29.97/59.94 footage - NTSC - is upper field dominant), and that is what your project should be set up to be, and sent back to FCPX as.  I'd just get confirmation before you start doing anything.

Hey Adrian,

When bringing in footage from Premiere or FCPX, Resolve does normally pick the right folder.  The easiest way to figure out if it did or not, is to (assuming you're in the Edit module), simply open the Media Pool, select a clip, then open the Metadata window, and take a look at the resolution of the clip.  What you'll also see in the Metadata window is the location of the file, which will help you narrow down if it's coming from the correct folder or not. With that being said, you will definitely want to use the Original Media, and not the transcoded media.  Let me know if you have any other questions
