The Screenwriter Theater Management System (TMS) from Arts Alliance Media (AAM) - a leader in digital cinema software - is the first TMS to support the new Barco Alchemy integrated cinema media processor. This feature will be available to all current and future Screenwriter users, allowing them to easily integrate projection systems equipped with the Barco Alchemy technology into their circuits. Support for Barco Alchemy adds to the support Screenwriter already provides to equipment from different vendors even within the same cinema, allowing exhibitors to seamlessly manage all screens and content in their complex from one central point.


Freedom of choice
"AAM are passionately committed to freedom of choice for exhibitors," said Rich Phillips, CTO of AAM. "We support all the key servers and media blocks, enabling exhibitors to use equipment from different vendors in the same facility seamlessly. We are delighted to be able to now offer the same support for the innovative Barco Alchemy product, giving exhibitors the freedom to make technology decisions that are not limited by compatibility with their existing systems."

Offering exhibitors more simplicity and reliability
Theodore Marescaux, Product Manager at Barco, added: "We're delighted that Screenwriter is now integrated with Barco Alchemy technology. In addition to having the best possible image technology, exhibitors can now seamlessly manage Barco Alchemy screens within their complex. Barco and AAM are both committed to offering exhibitors groundbreaking technology that's easy to use, making cinema operations even more simple and reliable."
