Re: Dolby Vision x265 Encoding, DV Profile Advantages/Caveats?
One thing I have noticed after I recently used the "Help Menu" to "Download the Newest FFMPEG" from within the Fastflix application is that my x265 encoded movie in Fastflix is now retaining the Dolby Vision metadata from the source file after the encode. I wonder if RPU is real...

Re: Dolby Vision x265 Encoding, DV Profile Advantages/Caveats?
I ran into a significant memory leak on Windows that caused dovi_tool to be unusable, but I moved over to macOS and have been able to extract RPUs for most movies in a couple minutes. NVMe storage speed seems to be the limiting factor for me (don't run over a network connection or on a slow disk). ...

Re: Dolby Vision x265 Encoding, DV Profile Advantages/Caveats?
@hogfan Thank you for clarify that no(?) value behinde -c is necessary, but this confuse me even more. Maybe I have a wrong idea about the EL overall. I crop the movie (BL) to 3840x1608 and when I inject DV into my encoding, it will crop automatic 138:138 from top and bottom of the EL, because of m...

Re: Correct way to convert 4k HDR rips?
If you are used to Handbrake, give Fastflix a try:

Works great and has good documentation.

Re: Dolby Vision x265 Encoding, DV Profile Advantages/Caveats?
This is super helpful thank you for writing this all down and sharing. Is there any idea of what the EL.hevc even is? I put an EL into an MKV container and it looks like a highlight detail layer of some sort. I have seen profile 8 mkvs with FEL included that work (but only with AC3 audio, not with ...

Re: Dolby Vision x265 Encoding, DV Profile Advantages/Caveats?
Great tutorial. Thank you. Can you specify a little more the use of the crop -c? E.g. I crop a movie to 3840x1608. I think I have to crop the EL to 1920x804. How do I use this command? I can't find an example. Thanks in advance. In regards to cropping, read over this thread and it should make sense...

Re: Dolby Vision x265 Encoding, DV Profile Advantages/Caveats?
@hogfan I've been ripping my large 4K collection for years now and have always wanted to get DV on my Plex server. From my searches online, I've found a ton of mixed information on process which most seemed pretty complicated. Was this just a test for you -- or are you doing more rips/encodes? Gues...

Re: Dolby Vision x265 Encoding, DV Profile Advantages/Caveats?
Hey @hogfan I tried replicating exactly that with a Ready Player One rip. The end .mkv basically just glitches and I think it has to do with the RPU having a different frame count than the hevc. Have you encountered a problem like this? Hey @hogfan I tried replicating exactly that with a Ready Play...

Re: Disney+ DV files
It may be that Dolby Vision Profile 5 playback is not supported on your AppleTV device in an MKV container. You could try extracting the tracks from the MKV and remuxing them with MP4Muxer. Try playing the resulting MP4 file back and see if you still have the issue. Dolby Vision Profile 5 is what al...

Re: Dolby Vision MKV to MP4
It sounds like you have a Dolby Vision Profile 5 MKV. You are going to run into two issues here: 1.) MP4 container doesn't support chapters (not a huge issue, but one to be aware of), 2.) MP4 Container does not support HD audio tracks (i.e. Dolby TrueHD) Try this: Install the following if you don't ...

Re: Dolby Vision x265 Encoding, DV Profile Advantages/Caveats?
Interesting thread. Thanks for your elaborate post on workflow. How do you deal with FEL? Do you ignore it and only remux profile-converted RPU with your re-encode? In case of FEL, I think RPU is meant to be applied to the full 12bit video. Also (not my personal experience) I have read there are is...

Dolby Vision x265 Encoding, DV Profile Advantages/Caveats?
So I believe after waiting some time, and doing a LOT of reading about Dolby Vision I have finally completed my first successful UHD BR Rip Dolby Vision encodes. I use the FastFlix application to encode my UHD BR Rips that don't have Dolby Vision, so to date, I've simply been keeping the DV rips as ...

Re: Ripping Dolby Atmos into MKV
I'm having a similar issue as MrEWhite, but the first time I've encountered this issue is with the movie Midway with the TrueHD Atmos track. The video does not stutter at all but, but when watching this movie last night the audio drops out for a few seconds about 4 or 5 times, and when audio returns...
