Demux mkv and remux to mp4 with mp4box.exe.

In v1.15.4 the info about latest version is not updated. Still shows 1.15.3.

If you look at 00222.mpls or 00003.m2ts you can see two streams: video #1 (3860x2160) and video #2 (1920x1080). So the UHD has a dual track dual level file - dolby vision. You can demux the second video stream with tsMuxer and look into with a video player. There are pictures in the stream, not only...

Alright but will Makemkv combine the base layer and enhancement layer into a single BL_EL_RPU stream for FEL movies?

Yes.
Open film.mkv in MakeMKV:
video: MpegH HEVC Main10@L5.1 (dvhe 07.06 BL+EL+RPU)

Only single track.

I think your BL+EL+RPU.hevc is damaged. First use latest MakeMKV (1.15.3) and create a working film.mkv (dvhe ...

You mean DEMUX.bat, right?

yusesope, you've created MUX_AND_CONVERT_TO_PROFILE_81.bat in your new v0.0.4_BETA_TEST. but that's equal to mux.bat now.
I think you should delete -mode 2 in mux.bat so that mux.bat is the same as in earlier releases.

If I use FEL -> MEL then the resulting file size is the same as without that conversion. Is that right? Normally MEL EL-file sizes are much lower. Parameter -mode 2 doesn't delete EL data. Getting not a file BL+RPU.hevc, only BL+EL+RPU.hevc with similar size. I'm using profile 5 on Windows 10 using ...

Congratulations!!
v1.15.2 works now perfectly with my BU40N (1.00) attached to the QNAP server (MakeMKV container).

I tested the 1.03 and 1.00 firmwares on my external BU40N via USB but it does not work with UHD on QNAP container (Linux). LibreDrive information and disk information are displayed. After start of decryption my 4k UHD Planet Earth II get error messages : DEBUG: Code 2399571968 at Z\M*hflDu).B!6OgK:1...
