Digima And Doremi Cinema Sign Distribution Deal

A world leader in digital cinema servers, Doremi Cinema, has announced it has signed an agreement for distribution and cooperation with the Italian company Digima, Italy.
This agreement covers the supply and installation of Doremi servers in Italy, including the provision of alternative content provided by Digima cinemas in the country.
The locations now equipped with Doremi Digital Cinema technology include the Stardust Multiplex in Tortona (comprising eight rooms with over 1,000 seats), the Metropolis Multisala in Castelletto Ticino (the first Italian cinema totally digitalised), the Multisala Gloria in Milan (an historic cinema founded in 1928), the Politeama Dianese in Diano Marina, the Cinema Ariston in Sestri Levante, the Cinema Centrale in Santa Margherita Ligure and the very famous Multiplex Arcadia in Melzo (Milan). More recently, other multiplexes including the Albenga Multiplex, the Cinema Eliseo in Cesena, three important cinemas of Movie Planet Group, the Mulitsala Cristallo, Multiplex Cinergia and Multisala Charlie Chaplin in the region of Veneto, have also made the switch to digital cinema based on proposals by Digima.
All the new digital rooms include Doremi Cinema DCP-2000 servers, Christie Digital projectors and 3D technology including Xpand, RealD kits for stereoscopic projection - together providing the backbone of the deployed digital cinema systems.
Digima has been active in digital cinema technology since 2004. It takes on the full 24/7 maintenance and support of the installed equipment as well as managing the distribution (making copies and digital keys), thanks to its high technology service combined with knowledge and experience in the business world.
Doremi Cinema is the subsidiary of Doremi that specialises in digital cinema. This continues from over ten years of delivering high performance servers for the video market. The Doremi Cinema DCP-2000 was the first cinema playout server on the market able to play JPEG2000 digital movies at up to 250Mb/s, in line with DCI specifications. Doremi has since continued to innovate and develop its technologies, incorporating new features and consolidating its position as the market leader. Developments include adding 4K and 3D playback, CineLink II encryption "watermarking" from Thomson NexGuard and Philips CineFence - making the DCP-2000 the most secure server market.
The DCP-2000 includes 1000GB of RAID5 storage in a 3U chassis with redundant power supplies and is supplied with CineLister software for the administration of movies and playlists.
More than 7,000 rooms worldwide now use the Doremi Cinema DCP-2000, today representing over 20 million projections and 80% market share of 2K cinema.
