Find a CPL, locate its parent package and inspect the selected DCP.

Understand the package

DCPs are complex. The workflow should not be.

Digital Cinema Packages contain interdependent picture, audio, subtitle and metadata assets. A single package can also contain multiple compositions that share material.

DCP Tools provides a practical path for receiving a package, finding a composition, locating its parent DCP and examining the technical information around it.
