Do you have any kind of ALE/FLX files, if not the negative could be logged on a Keykode reader. Was the original offline transfer done without stopping? Is there burnt-in keykode or timecode visible in rushes? Is there a punch hole on the first keykode? Etc, etc…
Picture should be no problem but sound will need some work. I usually conform scans in Baselight at 25fps with a PAL reference (1:1), after rendering to DPX for filmout or DCP you have an image sequence and fps won’t matter.
Do not allow any cutting in the negative rolls until this is all cleared out.

I have succesfully used ffmpeg on a Linux system to render Quicktime Prores files. There is also a ffmpeg version for Windows that would do the job, but it would be strictly command line. There is even a forum right here on Creative Cow to support ffmpeg.
ffmpeg is open source and works very well once you have mastered the command line.

We do make DCPs on a daily basis, but we also do digital archiving from analog and digital media, so this is where we need m-jpeg2000.

I installed OpenDCP. It will do MPEG2 or JPEG2000 (.j2c) but not M-JPEG2000 (.m2j) as far as I can see. Still looking.

OK, I will have a look today, my usual DCP output is J2C stream in MXF container.
thanks,

thanks,
I already have a DCP solution, M-Jpeg2000 is different animal for archive purposes. Let’s hope ffmpeg can handle this soon.

It is standard PAL 4/3 interlaced. The clips play fine on the external monitor if played from the source monitor in PPRo, plays fine in the program monitor in PPro but no picture only sound on external monitor; I need to tweak some picture factors that can only be judged on the external interlaced monitor. Blackmagic Decklink Extreme 3D with SDI output, capture was via YC analog input, audio via XLR analog.
