Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
True. Was able to locate them on avsforums. They don't play at all with Plex. Kodi is not ideal for me, but have you tried it?

As @FubbAyH said, the ending credits of Power Ranger is a better way to verify if FEL is processed.

Just tried MKB FEL. You are right. It's not processing the EL
Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
This is great! Let's hope these files work with the new Fire TV Max! Thank you!
Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
As I suspected. These files don't play on Plex at all regardless of container type. Tried to play them on the latest Kodi build. All of them played in HDR10. Was hoping ( don't know why lol ) that the Plex addon in Kodi will be different. Results were identical, all played in HDR10.

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Hello all,
I'm new to all this, so I'd like to apologise in advance for being inexperienced and uninformed. If my question does not suit this site/cannot be answered, please redirect me to the appropriate forum.
I've got an Infuse Pro yearly subscription, Apple TV 4K and Sony X900H / X90H.
With my current setup, is it possible to playback HEVC Dolby Vision Blu-ray Discs with a BDMV folder/m2ts files?

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Hello guys,
First, lots of thanks to @quietvoid for the amazing work on DV !!!
What's the latest on the grey letterbox issue ?
I am in a strange situation with a few recent mp4 files with Dolby Vision ( Version 1.0, dvhe.05.06, BL+RPU with DDP+ Dolby Atmos).
They play perfectly - but only once - on the LG C9 (firmware 05.10.25) internal player but if I close it of try to fast forward, the file is not recognized anymore and I can't reopen it.
If I open the same files on my M9702 (diskless Chinese OPPO UDP-203 clone), the files play perfectly but I get the grey letterbox bars you guys mention, that I have never seen before while playing DV BDMV profile 7 on the M9702.
On a X700 last firmware with the same TV, I get the grey letterbox as well.
Of course, on these devices, DV mkv's are not an option.
I remuxed to M2TS with TSMuxer but the issue stays the same. I also played around with dovi_tool but nothing gives (actually getting a pinkish image when converting to Profile
.
I have never noticed this grey letterbox issue, which is very obvious on OLED- pitch black scenes, before so I am not sure whether it comes from these specific files or from the last C9 firmware upgrade. The "file not recognized" issue after opening the MP4 once on the LG C9 internal player is recent as well.
Any conversion advice would be very much appreciated and I am of course at your disposal for extensive file testing if needed to pinpoint this issue !!!
Thanks a lot in advance !

that sample has very small black bars thoughTried it on Oppo, and yes, grey bars are there.RESET_9999 wrote: ↑Sat Oct 09, 2021 3:54 pmhaha, trust me you will.
Having this exact problem with my x700, I just can't stand the grey black bars(especially the 1600px content). I even prefer my Shield with the red push for p8 cropped content(no red push with p5).
The interesting part is that how grey it is depends on the metadata! E.g. from the previously linked Dolby manual (thanks for thjis for you RESET and Mannix):
"... Blu-ray players ... Due to this implementation on these devices, any positive lift applied to Dolby Vision content during the “trim pass,” will raise the black levels in the letterbox/blanking areas of the image and can become distracting to the end user. Dolby recommends a maximum positive lift value of 0.025 while doing the trims on letterboxed content during the Dolby Vision content creation process."
Thanks, now that's interesting. Maybe we can ask mashdi to provide this value as well in the measurement file.
What do you think what would happen if it's not 0 during tonemapping? I mean what's the effect of this value?
Does anyone compared the result this type of metadata RPU (from madvr) vs static metadata RPU (1 for all frames), if so is there any difference?
Reset, Mannix?

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Hi Guys,
I am trying to to create a dolby vision profile 7 dual layer mp4 from the lord of the rings two towers bluray. I first the demuxed the m2ts file to BL.hevc and EL.HEVC with ffmpeg. Than I create a mp4 file with ffmpeg. Dolby vision is working via plex on my lg oled C7. However, the file size of the MP4 file is only 40 gig. My BL.hevc file was 108 gig. Does someone know if this is normal behaviour? Or am i losing details now because of compression.
