🎬 GPU SMS Experiment

Next-Gen Cinema Playback System powered by NVIDIA GPUs. An experimental project exploring the limits of software-based DCP playback.

⚡️ What is this?

This is a GPU-accelerated Screen Management System (SMS) experiment. We are ditching traditional CPU decoding for the raw power of NVIDIA Pascal+ GPUs.

The Goal: Real-time 4K DCP playback, buttery smooth performance, and a modern web-based control interface.

🚀 Cool Stuff

• GPU Native: Uses nvJPEG2000 for blazing fast decoding.
• 4K Ready: Plays high-bitrate content without breaking a sweat.
• Modern UI: React + Vite frontend. Dark mode by default.
• Web Control: Control your cinema screen from any browser.

🛠️ Quick Start

1. The Brain (Agent)

cd sms_agent
pip install fastapi uvicorn pydantic
python agent.py

2. The Face (Frontend)

cd sms_frontend
npm install
npm run dev

Visit http://localhost:5173 and start the show.

🏗️ Architecture

• Core: C++ Player + NVIDIA nvJPEG2000 + ASDCP + SDL2
• Agent: Python FastAPI
• UI: React 19

⚠️ Disclaimer

This is an experimental project. It's fast, it's cool, but don't run your IMAX premiere on it just yet.
