Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

it means the input cannot be .hevc or .h265... it must be in a container (MKV)

As i pointed out above, if you add mkv, the script just closes

No it doesn't!
I use 3-1 with MKV every day.

Hmm, strange, I'll try again

Your DoVi_tool.exe is not the latest version.

1. if it's fel and expands brightness or improves details: MP4 version + workflow 4-3

2. mel or fel that doesn't touch brightness or details: MP4 or TS version + workflow 4-2

Regarding the latest Mission movie, am I correct that the FEL doesn't expand BL brightness. Is there a way to tell if the FEL improves details?

[RESET_9999]

You just have to export a bunch of screenshots with (7-1) as I do here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/ ... =917134052
The screenshot workflows(FEL HDR or SDR) are fully automated and very easy to use.

When trying to grade HDR in DaVinci, the preview looks washed out (I have a 4K HDR monitor).
Is there any way to get a proper preview without any specific hardware?
If not, what is the most budget friendly option?

[RESET_9999]

you need a capture card supported by Resolve. Alternatively, you can export a couple of 16bit tiffs and add ''transfer=HDR.matrix=2020'' in the filename. Then madvr/MPC will trigger HDR.

Hey @RESET

Any quick way to determine if an HDR10+ metadata on a WEB-DL is generated by the uploader from a conversion of the DoVi metadata ?

I'd like to know if there's a way to determine that when looking at the json file to then not trust those uploaders still doing these bad DoVi to HDR10+ conversions

[RESET_9999]

yes, just plot HDR10plus(6-6) and DV(6-3). The plots will be identical (minus the 10 and 100nits DV floor).

Does anyone know why more playback devices aren't capable of utilizing the 100-nit L2 trim for playback on SDR devices?
I've noticed that Apple, Google, and Amazon devices don't use the 100-nit L2 trim for playback on an SDR device even though all of them are Dolby Vision compatible. I'm following @RESET_9999's tutorial for using the 100-nit trim to create an SDR encode (via Resolve and Staxrip). Thanks!

Not able to replicate this.

AFAIK, the Fire Stick tv 4k and sony x700/x800m2 can. Not sure if it does its own tone mapping internally or if it's using the trim pass though. That would be easy to test with a capture card.

Try harder. I've been using this filename trick for years.
