Digital Cinema Server Ushers in Next Generation of Movie Technology Worldwide
Overview Market adoption of digital cinema technology has been slow, especially for movie theaters, which have very stringent requirements for security and reliability. Qube Cinema needed to solve those problems as it developed its next-generation digital cinema server. The company considered using Linux as the operating system, but ultimately rejected open source software because it lacked key functionality, including a robust streaming media architecture and broad catalogue of device drivers. By choosing Microsoft Windows XP Embedded, Qube Cinema was able to select just the required operating system components, resulting in a secure and reliable operating system. Qube Cinema was also able to leverage key Microsoft technologies, such as Microsoft DirectShow and the .NET Framework.
