Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.3

True, that is the last release of the original. It even does not support the HEVC stream properly. So it is just a relic. Take the one built today. Shawn’s advice to spin the iso image of the disc is even better. If your oppo can handle it. You will retain menus, chapters - things that are not enca...

Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.3

Why are you going through so much trouble if you have the oppo? Just play it from the full folder backup and call it a day. It will never support DV in MKV unless it gets some sort of firmware update, which is unlikely since it's a discontinued product. Because of the archaic media browser in eithe...

Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.3

For me the success came specifically with tsMuxeR nightly, after simply remuxing the tracks. thanks, I am using the latest nightly for macOS: 2.6.11 but its exiting with error 254 and sync issues or stopping before end of stream. I am trying without sub-titles, then I'll try without audio... and it...

MediaInfo doesn't differentiate the different EL types.
thank you, then I guess the stock Oppo UDP-203 maybe doesn't support single track double layer DV in .mkv. I'll try m2ts next which some users claimed success.

Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.3

... If you look at your mediainfo screenshot of the resulting mkv file, you'll notice that video track #1 is now labeled as BL+EL+RPU instead of just BL. That's where the enhancement layer (EL) and the metadata has gone (RPU). Makemkv combines both layers (BL, EL) and the metadata onto a single vid...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

... Since the Oppo UDP-203 (with some russian firmware?) seems to be the only player being able to stream full BD remuxes (FEL with their full 4000nits...) over the network. I'd like to know the names of the clones.. as the player costs over 1000 euros here.. EDIT: Already found it thanks. I am abl...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

LG C7 is able to play mp4 files in dvhe.07.06 (FEL or MEL dual layer DV). You can play those files from a nas in dlna or from usb. Here's the method i use to make the mp4 files : https://www.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=76820#p76820 ... That would have been a great option but alas no support f...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

... The conversion process used by makemkv 1.15.3+ is in itself a lossless conversion. The issue is that no current devices can play them (FEL titles) in their full capacity. The Oppo and its clones (iso/ts remux) or an x700 (ts remux) then are your only options for 1:1 playback. Out of curiosety, ...

Re: Speed Control, 1.15.3, and UHD friendly max speed!

Possible I encountered what Mike warned about encountering the sleep bug with setting max speed. I tried ripping Star Trek 4K 2009, and makemkv was just idling while the drive made sounds as if it's stuck. Sadly I didn't know to enable the debug log, now its on. I recycled the drive and it was fine....

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

... For UHD-BD rip, HDR10 is better than Dolby Vision on the Shield. https://screenshotcomparison.com/comparison/9580 Interesting, I am reaching a similar conclusion for my unrelated limited trials with DV P5 (InfusePro) for ATV4K using yusesope’s mode 2 (which he warned to stay away from but no ot...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

Is this very earlier comment from last year still valid: truehd in mp4 ? I extracted using ffmpeg Stream #0:2[0x1100]: Audio: truehd from my Black Panther rip and when mixed with to mp4 along a DV P5 file, I get DV thru InfusePro->ATV4K->LG OLEG65E7 but no sound is detected or played. I did the same...

Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.3

So I am not sure if I am misunderstanding how to get DV with 1.15.3. I just ripped a copy of Ready Player One that is supposed to have DV and I don't get DV when playing back with Plex but others I have in DV do work but they were done with the older process of ripping in MakeMKV and then using tsm...

Re: Speed Control, 1.15.3, and UHD friendly max speed!

I wonder if I should set 0=99 for my new Asus BW-16D1HT (ext drive USB3 on Catalina, 1.15.4, LibreDrive 3.10-MK) too ... I did my first UHD 4K DV rip of Black Panther, and it was an abysmal 1X where it took 2'30" to rip. Ok I followed suit and currently ripped Aquaman UHD at 11x -> 42" :sh...
