CMV4.0: No idea why they completely changed the algo for avg_pq. max_pq is indeed higher but it doesn't make a big difference in reality. raising the avg_pq floor from 2.5 to 10nits makes the low end slightly brighter but avg_pq almost has no effect when the RPU source_pq is 1000nits. I wonder whet...

Is there any reason to not just scale in Staxrip while outputting the ProRes file? Seems like an easy way to kill two birds with one stone and work with a smaller ProRes file, but I might be misunderstanding the purpose of this step. no this will produce wrong l1... its the downscaling in resolve t...

1080p+cubic: I dont know but of the many tests I did, it is the way to go. The peaks are always identical to madvr and most of the time, VERY close to the studio's original RPU (when they don't cap too much the peaks). Because they cannot directly modify L1 like they can with L2/L8 but they can cop...

What would it take to actually export properly in CMv4 outputting proper L2 & L8? Also, how far off are these results from what a professional colorist would come up with? You can't edit L2/L8 without a DV license so what you get is the default values from the dolby algo. see my explanation of ...

My camera dynamic range is very limited. it will always make the black crush or blown highlight worse than they are in reality. In reality that shot does look darker but not as crushed as you can see in the video. The video just shows how avg_pq metadata generation is different in cmv4.0. If you co...

Why set the project to CMv4.0 instead of CMv2.9 then? Would you not get better results just initially setting to CMv2.9 to avoid the issues you demonstrated here with CMv2.9 when CMv4.0 analysis is used ? This video doesn't show issues. It just shows the difference between the format. CMV4.0 is the...

Aside from the time/effort involved. Is there a downside to doing this and/or anything you miss out on or that could be improved upon further from your tutorial? The only thing I don't do in the video is the project image scaling. I found out that if you set your project to 1080p with cubic algo, i...

3- generate a proper RPU in resolve for the BL actual brightness.

Can I do this in the free version of Resolve? I don't think so I have Resolve Studio on my work computer and am going to give this a try later today. Is the FEL Expansion more significant on some movies compared to others? I can't see the difference when toggling between watching "The Super Ma...

The TV receives brightness metadata (L1/L2) that is wrong for the content it's displaying so because it thinks the content is much brighter than it is, it dims the brightness accordingly to adapt to its capabilities. Do you/we have any idea why they're doing this? Is it better to just watch in HDR ...

Would it be possible to have a version of DoVi_Scripts someday that uses DoViBaker and dovi_tool to reconstruct the FEL image and output a correct P8.1 file? @quietvoid & @RESET_9999 have either of you considered teaming up with erazortt to do this? Thanks! The output wouldn't be easily playabl...

Thanks, but I found this comment: https://github.com/erazortt/DoViBaker/issues/3#issuecomment-1259843741 So the result will not be good if we inject the RPU because double processing. But then I don't really understand what this tool is for? Reinjecting the *original* RPU is wrong. When converted t...
