this applies only to any P5 web-dl from itunes/appleTV. Ok. I'm using workflow 7-3 to generate screenshots to compare brightness between the hdr10 bluray and DV stream. It says "PQ screenshots DVP5 /HDR10 or SDR vs SDR (Libplacebo)". Why DVP5? Can I still use this workflow if the DV strea...

What are the benefits of doing so? To remove the color difference caused by apple? For better support on devices. I used to do that when I was using my TV internal player Plex and kept doing it even after getting the ugoos. Also by doing this, I know that all my P7 rip are FEL even though it's easy...

I actually always convert P7 MEL to P8.

Why would you want to do that? P7 is pointless without FEL. As far as DV quality goes: P7 FEL > P5 > P7 MEL = P8
I actually always convert P7 MEL to P8.

Does it have to be P8 ts or it can be P8 mkv? In the P8 hybrid tutorial the final file is ts

@RESET_9999 I'm testing The Marvels (2023), which is an HDR10 movie. I'm trying to inject DV cmv4.0 from the web release into the bluray one. Should I strictly follow the P8 hybrid tutorial or there's another way to inject DV so that the final file remains profile 7 mkv?

Put Transformers: Rise of the Beasts (2023) in the list of web releases that is only cmv2.9. Just wasted a few hours downloading several versions of it; all are 2.9.

It doesnt trigger DV on your TV, you need a certified DV monitor for that. It decodes the DV metadata to HDR10 or SDR according to your EDID, the same as LLDV.

Yeah. Just noticed that in your spreadsheet. Dolby Vision scene remains dead on pc.

Oh damn I didn't know there's a media player that can play dolby vision on pc

yes, L5 doesnt matter for all the devices except:
1- TV internal player
2- Windows Energy Player

Ok nice. I can save time by skipping editing L5 then.

but all the hdmi devices ignore L5 so it doesn't matter to them. Only your TV internal player uses it.

Huh? So if I'm using the Ugoos AM6B+ it won't matter if L5 is correct or not, or am I misunderstanding sth here?

yes, when it's already the right values, you skip. As I said, L5 is rarely incorrect on Bluray. I just checked Blue Beetle in aviSynth and it crops at 277 for top and 277 for bottom, while it reports 276 for top and 277 for bottom in dovi scripts. I guess we have to edit L5 for this one... What hap...

No, and the script will force you to edit L5 only when its missing.... Watch the P8 hybrid tuto, I show how to measure the black bars of the BL and edit L5 when necessary I watched that tutorial. Below is my 1-1 workflow. I measured the black bars of the BL beforehand and they were 276 for top and ...

the L5 on the P5/P8 web-dl has nothing to do with the one on the bluray P7 rpu when you transfer cmv4.0

Hmm ok. So for all the cmv4.0 transfers just type in 0,0,0,0 (i.e. pressing enter)?

just check the RPU L1 plot on my googledrive link Ah ok. It's confirmed to be cmv2.9. No point doing the transfer then. Will try a different movie that is not on your spreadsheet. Btw, I'm measuring the black bars for Dune 2 to see if I need to edit L5. Checking the bluray version and the top and b...

I just downloaded two web releases of John Wick 4 in order to test the rpu transfer and both are cmv2.9. Sigh. This takes too much time.
