Guys, thanks for the clever workarounds, but, sadly, this is a big museum — they don't want or need someone showing up with any devices. They show several films every day. And they are in NYC, while I am in Alabama — so what won't go wrong!?
Tim Sassoon suggested the BMD Shuttle, which I didn't know had been upgraded to do ProRes — that seems to be the smallest, cheapest, and simplest way to go, but that too isn't likely to fly — they want a tape or a DCP!
Many have pointed out it's likely that they don't play SR — most booths use the cheaper decks.
We'll see how it goes… and thanks for all the tips — greatly appreciated.
Jeff

Jeffa left field thought in case this is easier or cheaper.I assume they have the means to control an RS 422 device. Therefore if you arrive with a file that looks like an RS422 device using something like Gallery VVTR or similar then they could play that. http://www.virtualvtr.com/ All you would need is a Mac Mini and one of these http://www.colinbroad.com/cbsoft/usb422/usb422.htmlHi:
I'm in the middle of restoring a film that suddenly has to show at MoMA a week from today. MoMA does not show files — they show DCPs or tapes. They say they show HD-CAM (and I am going to assume that they include SR in that because HD-CAM sucks!).
Since it won't quite be finished at that point, the filmmaker has decided that tape makes more sense — also, they can use these tapes when they license clips — so, here's my question:
Who in NYC can do a 90-minute output to HD-CAM from a ProRes HQ file, quickly and at a reasonable price? Anyone in Birmingham, AL (I'm near Montgomery)?
All suggestions appreciated.
Thanks,
Jeff
