Author Topic: Current # of DCI screens in the US? Ky Boyd Hey I'm #23 Posts: 314 From: Santa Rosa, CA, USA Registered: Jun 99 posted 07-28-2010 01:23 AM                       Of course both NATO and MPAA websites turn out to be useless on this question...approximately how many installed/running DCI compliant screens are there currently in the US? I'm not interested in 2008 or 2009 or where it will be in 2012. Anybody got any good data on this? Thanks!  |  IP: Logged Olivier Lemaire Expert Film Handler Posts: 118 From: Paris, Ile de France, France Registered: Jan 2010 posted 07-28-2010 02:02 AM                        I guess some Digital laboratory like Deluxe or Technicolor may answer you pretty easily: to generate KDMs, they have to maintain an DCI screen database that must be pretty exact. Hope one of these day, an open and public database will arise...  |  IP: Logged Ian Price Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1714 From: Denver, CO Registered: Jun 99 posted 07-28-2010 01:45 PM                     20% 10,000 out of 36,000 screens. 2,4000 to 2,500 theatres.  |  IP: Logged Ky Boyd Hey I'm #23 Posts: 314 From: Santa Rosa, CA, USA Registered: Jun 99 posted 08-01-2010 04:08 PM                       Thanks Ian!
