Dolby Vision and 1.15.1
Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.1
OK then. So this goes back to Mike in that - can you please support as an input for the audio conversion DTS:X? I have an AC3 profile which works with all other variants of DTS other than DTS:X.

I have MKVToolnix on my Mac, works fineLarrikin wrote: ↑Tue Oct 13, 2020 2:36 amThis is the bit where I'm going to get stuck. Everything else above that is straight forward (thanks to you).

Also, installing mkvtoolnix looked like a nightmare with all these other things you have to install along with it. Anyhow, a mute point because I don't run Linux.MartyMcNuts wrote: ↑Tue Oct 13, 2020 2:30 amNow open mkvtoolnix, add the mkv you created with MakeMKV, deselect the DTS-HD audio track, add the audio.ac3 file and mux to a new mkv file. This file should retain the DV (as you are using the MakeMKV generated mkv file) and now have only an ac3 audio track.
Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.1
Yes, I have since worked that out and have used it. However, what would be more ideal is that the AC3 profile in MakeMKV supports the conversion of DTS:X. It converts all other variants of DTS, just not DTS:X. Avoids then having to use ffmpeg to extract audio, and remux it with MKVToolnix. A massive time saving. Just hope Mike adds support for DTS:X.djbuddha wrote: ↑Fri Oct 16, 2020 9:17 pmI have MKVToolnix on my Mac, works fineLarrikin wrote: ↑Tue Oct 13, 2020 2:36 amThis is the bit where I'm going to get stuck.

Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.1
Ok guys, so does anyone who uses Sony x700 to play Dobly VIsion m2ts files (created by nightly tsMuxer), run in the following problem: if a movie is long - over two hours (like Schindler's List or Braveheart), the resulting m2ts file has limited options. And by that I mean - you can play it and you can pause it on Sony x700 just fine, but you can't fast forward it or rewind. Like, when you press the button it gives the "this function is not available" message. Which is not really convinient if you don't watch the movie in one go, or want to check some scenes. So what could that be? The weird limitation of time in a m2ts container? Or limitation of file size? Anybody know?

Anyone managed to find ExoPlayer v2.12.0 (2020-09-11) the .apk file?
Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.1
If you are referring to the latest release build of exoplayer on github, then you are not going to find one. The project on github is an API used by other applications. The only apk that you can build out of it is a demo that can be used to the view the supplied demo files. If you have the knowhow, you can modify it to read custom files (like yusecope has done with his modified version) and then build the demo apk out of that.gabi.gegea@gmail.com wrote: ↑Tue Oct 20, 2020 1:35 pmAnyone managed to find ExoPlayer v2.12.0 (2020-09-11) the .apk file?

Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.1
I'm sorry for drudging this up again but I am drawing a complete mental blank.
Should this be triggering DV on a Shield Pro?

Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.1
I have just purchased the UHD 4K of Terminator Dark Fate which supports Dolby Vision and indeed works on my UHD Panasonic Bluray player. However, when using MakeMKV to backup my disc, it refuses to copy across Dolby Vision. Plex will only ever play it in HDR.
Is there something particular with this movie / disc?

Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.1
No, there shouldn't be. You have to be a bit more specific than just "refuses to copy across Dolby Vision". Does makemkv not show BL+FEL+RPU when opening the disk? Does the new mediainfo not detect dolby vision?Larrikin wrote: ↑Mon Oct 26, 2020 2:03 amI have just purchased the UHD 4K of Terminator Dark Fate which supports Dolby Vision and indeed works on my UHD Panasonic Bluray player.

Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.1
No and no. And to doubly test it, I downloaded a full complete UHD copy and tried it with MKV and same result. I also tried on multiple computers all with the latest (registered) version of MakeMKV.

Re: Dolby Vision and 1.15.1
Not sure what you're doing wrong, but my copy is showing up as BL+FEL+RPU just fine. Are you sure you're opening the title that's labeled as "Terminator: Dark Fate - 20 chapter(s), 58.3 GB". Otherwise, double check the version of your makemkv.
