Once a theater has the Rear Window and DVS Theatrical systems installed, how do they get the captions and descriptions?
Once a movie has been captioned and described, conventional theaters projecting 35mm film can obtain the captions and descriptions on CDs along with the DTS CDs that contain the digital audio for the film. For theaters projecting film digitally, closed captioned and described digital cinema packages (DCPs) can be requested from the movie studios. For specialty theaters, Captions are provided on a floppy disk and the descriptions are provided in the audio format appropriate for the theater.
