Cinema Automation CA 2.0

The revolutionary CA2.0 from GDC is the firstever centralized solution to provide comprehensive automated management of content storage and playback, show scheduling, power supply, and screening quality providing exhibitors the best possible solution to save time, effort and cost. CA2.0 has already been deployed and proven at over 300 screens in China, Hong Kong, India, Malaysia, Singapore, and the US.

GDC CA2.0 incorporates the SCL2000 Centralized Storage Playback Solution, integrated centralized storage and playback system designed to streamline content management, and leverages machine intelligence to increase efficiency while dramatically reducing the need for human intervention. The SCL2000 is truly a gamechanger in that it is the world’s first solution capable of playback of 1,000 movies to as many as 14 screens from a centralized server, greatly increasing programming flexibility and eliminating the need for local storage.

  • The system intelligently manages the equipment power supply and assures screening quality automatically.
  • Its sophisticated failsafe design helps to eliminate interruptions by ensuring that every screening continues undisturbed in the highly unlikely event of a central server failure.

SR1000 Standalone Integrated Media Block™

The New 6thgeneration DCinema media server is the only solution currently available that supports series 1, 2, and 3 DLP Cinema® projectors, making it the best possible solution for exhibitors with series 1 projectors that need the server replaced.

  • Designed and built with cache memory to playback content without hard drive storage
  • Designed for nearzero maintenance and minimal total cost of ownership

“Developing new technologies for the cinema industry is unique in that it requires constant communications with exhibitors, distributors, and the creative community. CA2.0 and SR1000 were developed from our 20year knowledge of digital cinema and constantly working with our industry partners, said Annie Wang, executive vice president, strategic for GDC Technology (USA), LLC. The launch of our newest products in July is already providing exhibitors with technology ahead of its time designed, solving the issues of operating in today’s and tomorrow’s digital cinema world.”
