GDC Technology<br />

One of GDC Technology’s<br />

flagship products, the TMS-2000<br />

Theatre Management System (TMS)<br />

is a comprehensive solution that gives<br />

you centralized control over the<br />

entire theatre’s operation from one<br />

location. The latest version of the TMS-<br />

2000 offers a robust, user-friendly<br />

management system with increased<br />

operational efficiency with a start-up<br />

time that is 13 times faster than the<br />

previous version. Designed to streamline<br />

all theatre operations, the new Web<br />

access feature offers users the capability<br />

to monitor all screens in the theatre<br />

remotely. In addition, GDC developed<br />

an iPhone app to build on the success of<br />

the iPad app launched in 2014.<br />

Another innovative new feature is<br />

Content Watcher. Just picture this: Any<br />

time new content arrives from a specific<br />

source—such as a remote file server or a<br />

satellite—Content Watcher retrieves the<br />

new content automatically without any<br />

human intervention, ensuring new content<br />

will not be missed due to the user’s oversight.<br />

Basically, GDC designed Content<br />

Watcher to help maximize efficiency. To<br />

date, GDC TMS solutions are the secondlargest<br />

installation base in the world, covering<br />

16,000 screens in 2,400 theatres.<br />

Hollywood Software<br />

Hollywood Software’s Theater<br />

Command Center (TCC)—the firstever<br />

TMS—currently runs more<br />

than 12,000 screens for 375+ circuits<br />

worldwide. TCC is the only TMS that<br />

builds show playlists automatically via<br />

POS imports and rules set for content,<br />

which means a complex with 10 or<br />

more screens can be programmed in<br />

less than 20 minutes each week. It<br />

centralizes content management and<br />

automates features, trailers and KDM<br />

transfers, creating significant efficiencies<br />

that enable theatre staff to focus on<br />

customers, and managers to oversee an<br />

entire complex from one screen and—<br />

with one mouse click—troubleshoot<br />

and solve problems instantly.<br />

TCC supports Dolby, Doremi,<br />

GDC, Qube and FilmStore players<br />

and can ingest digital files via hard<br />

drive, satellite or network share. It<br />

integrates with all major POS systems,<br />

and features APIs for the automated<br />

ingestion, programming and reporting of<br />

ad content. It even automatically trims<br />

content from packs in overlapping show<br />

situations based on asset prioritization.<br />

Coming soon: TCC 3.5, due in early<br />

2016, will include integration with the<br />

Barco Alchemy ICMP, plus enhancements<br />

to title mapping and preshow pack<br />

scheduling designed to give users even<br />

more flexibility with programming in<br />

today’s world of multiple formats and<br />

precious screen real estate.<br />

Hollywood Software’s TCC allows managers to oversee an entire complex<br />

from one computer screen.<br />
