How to make 25 FPS SMPTE DCPs with Interop subtitles that can be used in Easydcp player:
Easydcp player does not support SMPTE MXF subitles yet, but it can use Interop XML subtitles. With 25 FPS SMPTE DCPs with interop subtitles you can test 25 FPS subtitles in Easydcp player. You can also use easydcp player to play 25 FPS films transferred from HDCAM with added subtitles and 5.1 sound. Doremi has supported 25 FPS DCPs with Interop subtitles in their mastering software and server, this may be reason these DCPs are playable.

SMPTE DCPs with Interop subtitles seems to be compatible with more servers than SMPTE DCPs with MXF subtitles. You can’t make these non-standard DCPs directly in Easydcp, but with some tricks it is possible to make one.
