Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

Both DTDL files do not playback on the C8 internal player, the STDL ones trigger Dolby Vision but stutter. Are you using the latest mp4muxer code from Github? It causes these issues on the C8 at least, while the first version posted in 2018 works perfectly. From this tree: https://github.com/DolbyL...

Re: Saving Private Ryan "light leak"

So I've had a bit of a dig, and this (rather anecdotal) comment came up on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/hometheater/comments/8ik5kn/lg_c7_potential_banding_wsaving_private_ryan/ Are you referring the the seemingly over exposed vertical stripes throughout the film? If so, this is intentional. It ...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

Yeah, pretty much, so the method on the first couple pages of this thread still works No such luck with DLNA with both an MP4 and TS file muxed with mp4muxer and tsMuxeR respectively but given the success on the first page I’m thinking it might be DLNA and not the files; need to dig up a big enough...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

If you're playing files off of your TV, I still think it's best to skip any of the complicated tools and just use mp4muxer to create a dual track profile 7 DV mp4. Then skip Plex and just host a DLNA server to play these files. It's the least complicated method and playback of ST DV TS files off th...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

Possible - but how do you know it will play a single layer DV encoding? And, if so, what profile? I dumped the test DV file from https://4kmedia.org/lg-dolby-vision-uhd-4k-demo/ on my server and it played without any further modification. Mediainfo reports the video stream in that as: Dolby Vision,...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

Apologies if I've missed this somewhere along the line (I've read a lot of this thread but not all of it!) but has it been determined if there's some combination of MakeMKV/tsMuxeR/mp4muxer that will combine the separate 4K HEVC and 1080p DV HEVC tracks in an M2TS rip into a single HEVC stream? I've...

Re: Max FALL and CLL values

Presumably that means it doesn't matter if they're set to 0 in that case if they sometimes are? I tried the ffprobe method with a demuxed m2ts rip that was originally Dolby Vision (but just the HDR encoded video track, not the Dolby Vision track) and that reported CLL and FALL values of 0, so looks ...

Re: Saving Private Ryan "light leak"

Apologies, I didn't mean to imply that this was anything to do with MakeMKV (it's obvious that it's not), just that the only way in which I'd viewed the video was as the result of a MakeMKV export (so as to confirm that I hadn't seen it from a Blu Ray player before anyone asked). Mostly I was just c...

Re: Max FALL and CLL values

Those are the values I mean yes. Sorry I should've attached more information! I used MakeMKV 1.15.3 from the Linux CLI (makemkvcon) just using the standard mkv rip. I've attached a copy of the mediainfo output from the ripped DVD (using mediainfo 20.09) that cuts off just after the audio track infor...

Max FALL and CLL values

When re-encoding MKV files I want to retain the HDR information which is pretty easy now with the relevant x265 options. However I'm having trouble determining values for --max-cll based on the CLL and FALL values in the source. I've seen lots of examples of this output in mediainfo, but for the sou...

Re: Saving Private Ryan "light leak"

Out of interest do you also this banding on the bunker and helmet insignia? It changes as characters move across the banding areas as well, it's surprisingly distracting. This is from about 00:23:00 onwards. I don't have a UHD Blu Ray player so can't test whether this is just from a MakeMKV 1.15.3 r...

Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.3

So I think I've got my head round most of this stuff, but I'm looking for a reliable conversion process to produce a DV MP4 (not fussed about TrueHD/Atmos). I've got MakeMKV 1.15.3 to create an MKV with DV BL+EL+RPU data, so I just want to lower the video bitrate from the source but retain the DV da...
