March 15, 2010

Leading Austrian theatre circuit Hollywood Megaplex will team with XDC International to deploy 40 DCI-compliant digital-cinema systems in four cinemas.

Serge Plasch, XDC's chief executive officer, said, "Hollywood Megaplex has been working with XDC for more than three years. After a successful experience using one or two digital systems per complex, it is now time to move to the next phase. We are very happy to be in charge of the complete 100% rollout. This plan will be executed as soon as the new Series 2 projectors [from Christie] will be delivered.”

Hollywood Megaplex will also implement a fully integrated and networked solution in each complex, using XDC's Theatre Management System and Central Library, the XDC's CineStore® Plaza. All the systems will be connected to XDC's Network Operations Center.
