Re: Ripping Blurays with full Dolby Vision layers in mkv

Zidoo just sent me this. It’s their new firmware. 57B65D25-A004-4119-B723-345486E90790.jpeg Zidoo have always used this language regarding their Z9X etc.; when they say FEL is "supported", they mean that the file can be successfully played, and the RPU is properly applied ("real Dolb...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

I tried to find some information about the CPU, but found nothing.

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

I have studied this topic (and many other forums) regarding Dolby Vision capable media players, and was about to give up on DV... but it seems that multiple users recently had luck with the newest Zidoo Z9X firmware (6.2.5). Allegedly, this version improves DV compatibility (see also http://forum.z...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

I sent an email to ugoos regarding the audio bitstreaming on PLEX. I encourage everyone else to do the same :) support@ugoos.net eugene@ugoos.net I think the problem is UGOOS and not the plex app Apparently, it is an upstream kernel issue from Amlogic . The Minix U22-XJ firmware is in the same boat...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

Sorry late to the party, received the Mininx and flashed the Ugoos firmware LATE last night, are we saying choosing TV-Led processing causes incorrect colours with HDR10 and SDR? Why is that even a thing? TV led processing should only affect Dolby Vision, does HDR10 not pass through? Yes, for some ...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

With DV off, are you getting the correct colours now for the SDR/HDR10 test patterns? If so, it's something that should be easy for Ugoos to fix as bobby mentioned (match content colourspace with DV on). Good news, both HDR10 and SDR modes are accurate in 12bits on the UGOOS. So this the best andro...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

Yep, you have to turn off DV in order to get 12 or 10 bits in HDR10 otherwise you're stuck in 8bit for everything. that sucks!! I've compared DV with my x700 and it looks pretty much the same to me. My DSLR camera captured a small difference that I didn't notice in real life. MUCH better than the S...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

how do you activate auto-frame rate match in KODI ? i found the setting on plex and it works but it doesn't match the frame rate on Kodi.... sorry for the noob question, I'm not used to those android apps/device, I'm an HTPC guy. SDR colors are off (tested both kodi and plex.. both the same): https...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

I tried the new Ugoos 0.40 fw mod on Minix and from now on just use Plex, DV playback is perfect from STDL MEL/FEL ts, mp4 and mkv too. Can you give this sample from saving private ryan a try and see if you notice any flickering throughout? https://mega.nz/file/ECAA0DwZ#K8yxC-GMUm7juy7Cz9Q90WxfsO8P...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

How can we tell Minix is processing the colors correctly and plays the second HEVC stream with EL layer like a regular Blu-Ray player? For a long time, we thought the same thing with Shield, but Shield discards the EL I don't know about the Minix specifically, but there is proof for the Ugoos AM6 P...

You're wrong, the new Chromecast with Google TV has an Amlogic S905D3 (https://dl.khadas.com/Hardware/VIM3/Datasheet/S905D3_datasheet_0.2_Wesion.pdf): ● SoC: Amlogic S905D3 Quad Core 4x ARM-A55 @ 1.9GHz (64bit) / GPU Mali-G31 MP2 / 12nm. ● Amlogic Video Engine (AVE) with dedicated hardware decoders...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

And what does Chromecast or Ugoos, what does not have Dune for FEL to work? For the same reason, don't you think Dune adds support through FW? i hope so if Another streaming devices apparently have FEL support now... I have no idea, it's very surprising that not 1 but 2 streaming devices can do FEL...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

@Manixx2020beyound finally got his hands on the new Dune player, time to do some comparisons :) Unfortunately, the Dune does like the Shield and ignores the EL but there is no red push and the colors seem to be accurate. Even though it looks like the dune is ignoring the EL, there is still an impro...
