[Bug] MakeMKV on ARM (linux)

I assume the current userbase for MakeMKV on ARM64 is pretty small but I hope the following bug can still be fixed since recent changelogs also show ARM fixes. For some reason (other people also confirmed it) UHD Blu-ray’s always error out in the beginning and want you to submit the dump for keys. U...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

Apparently the new Fire TV Stick 4K Max (2Gen) 2023 16GB supports: -Dolby TrueHD (Atmos) passthrough -DTS passthrough -DTS-HD passthrough (basic profile) which is new. Still no FEL / Profile 7 DoVi support per https://developer.amazon.com/docs/fire-tv/device-specifications-fire-tv-streaming-media-pl...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

“SEI Next-gen Box is equipped with Amlogic S905X5 which incorporates a New-gen CPU, 4K HDR UI GPU, NPU 2x4Kp60 decoder , and WVC. Incorporating Ai-SR, Dolby Laboratories Dolby Atmos, eARC, VRR, and QMS support” Is there any legitimate other reason for dual 4k60 decoders other than FEL Dolby Vision? ...

upcoming HDR10+ support on Apple Devices

I thought it could be relevant to start a thread for the announced HDR10+ support during WWDC 2022. It should come to iOS 16, Mac OS Ventura, and the next tvOS. Haven’t tested yet but it should be working on the beta firmware.

Based on your spreadsheet, CCwGTV supports FEL. Which media player app supports it? I am looking for something other than PLEX, since I use Jellyfin. (but I can configure it to use an external player).
Just (video) Player, should be a green icon. It’s also open source

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

This has to be one of the biggest news in this thread in a while. Hopefully the difference can be reverse engineered (looks hopeful at @quietvoid). I really thought we’d need to wait for a complete new SoC to maybe one day get DV (at least MEL)+Passthrough Audio in a device to simply stream like the...

great analysis as usual @quietvoid ... I need to try to understand your vs-nlq script (assuming that's what you used to check FEL)...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

It should probably be compared to the FEL disc, in the hope that they're the same. I don’t have the tools to compare the FEL disc to the Version thats being sold here, but the distributer responded to my email saying the A24 Disc‘s DolbyVision is just "upscaled" to FEL while they wanted t...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

Yup that's straight off the Bluray. Great to know that the distributer here completely disregarded the FEL in probably the most unusal way for a bluray release

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

So in makemkv it says "HEVC Main10@L5.1 (dvhe.08.06 BL+RPU)" about the source. The HEVC File is "Dolby Vision, Version 1.0, dvhe.08.06, BL+RPU, Blu-ray compatible / SMPTE ST 2086, HDR10 compatible" ~ MediaInfo But they even forgot to set the dvhe flag. I'm guessing that Bluray Pl...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

Have you guys ever come across a Profile 8 (dvhe 08.06) in an UHD Bluray? I thought only Profile 7 was used in these but the German Release of Lamb from Koch Media surprisingly is encoded like that.

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

some unstable Chinese android boxes can play fel mkv with atmos. I'm sure in the future , there will be one that works. Those should be the the - Ugoos AM6 Plus - Minix Neo U22-XJ (with Ugoos firmware) Both share the Amlogic S922X-J which does FEL with it being limited to (32bit) Kodi builds by Mav...

Re: Dolby Vision x265 Encoding, DV Profile Advantages/Caveats?

Has anyone tried compressing the 4k movie to 1080p and then inject the DV part? Does that work or do we have to stay at the original resolution? Interesting question. I never gave DV for 1080p much thought. Profile 7 RPU is hold by 1080p EL. Profile 7 also supports FHD, if wiki is correct. It does ...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

You really just want the DTS-HD bitstream passed through, not decoded, right? Yes Seems likely that the Amlogic DTS-HD decoder takes DTS-HD input but only decodes the lossy DTS core. That's how, e.g., Plex's DCA decoder works. Otherwise they would need to be paying for a hardware decoder license. W...
