Good point. Yes, they are FEL P7.The Dolby 8.1 test file I tried played in Plex as HDR10 and with the extreme stutter. Do we know of any P7 MEL test files that have a very noticeable RPU for testing? Perhaps we could make one of those from the FEL test file using dovi_tool?
Code: Select all
dovi_tool.exe -m 1 convert --discard .\feltest.hevc

I just tested them out and the MKV plays in Plex and triggers the DV logo on the TV (yay!) but there are no dramatic brightness changes from 27 seconds as described in the post, so the RPU is being ignored and it is indeed fake DV (boo!) Playing the MP4 version puts the TV in HDR10 mode and the playback is extremely stuttery, so maybe it's trying to transcode on the fly.
Thank you again!
Those play in Plex on Apple TV with stutter, they show the DV logo, but there are no obvious brightness differences between them, so again the conclusion seems to be that the RPU is being ignored.what if you make it profile 5(not following dv specs) ? is there a brightness adjustment at the 3-4 sec mark? or on the samples from avs forum
What do you mean by "make it profile 5"? By messing with the metadata/headers? Is there a tool to do that easily?RESET_9999 wrote: ↑Sun Aug 22, 2021 8:17 pmwhat if you make it profile 5(not following dv specs) ? is there a brightness adjustment at the 3-4 sec mark? or on the samples from avs forum
I suspect that's right, hence my idea to transcode my profile 7 rips to profile 5.RESET_9999 wrote: ↑Sun Aug 22, 2021 8:17 pmI wouldn't be surprised if the appletv can actually only play true profile 5 with a full range color from streaming websites.
demux, then :
Code: Select all
mp4muxer_64bits.exe --dv-profile 5 --input-file X:\DV.hevc --output-file output.mp4lol, you won't find that information on any public forum. Not even on private trackers forum.
Thank you! I've tried that now and the fake profile 5 file plays as DV in Plex and Infuse, but I don't see a brightness change in either of them, unfortunately. So that's disappointing.RESET_9999 wrote: ↑Sun Aug 22, 2021 8:49 pmdemux, then :

I've only come across one maybe two P8 files recently. I don't even recall which show they were. I know they were P8 (at least according to mediainfo) because I usually check all DV downloads to see what I need to do (if anything) to get them to work with my sources. I was actually surprised to see P8 downloads since all streaming is P5. I guess someone did that because they thought it would increase compatibility or maybe mediainfo just ID'd it wrong? I think I have had trouble with mkv P5 but not mp4 P5 (Infuse). I'll try the P8's from the link above and see what happens.FubbAyH wrote: ↑Sun Aug 22, 2021 6:28 pmThank you. That's great news because Infuse is my preferred player too. I'm testing the 8.1 test files from Dolby and from Mystery Box, though, and they are both playing as HDR10 for me. I've set output to 4K SDR with Match Dynamic Range on as you suggested, but I get the HDR10 logo on my TV when playing the files rather than the DV logo. Do you have some sample files that are working for you that I could try?
wow, in the past years we've seen a lot of people commenting here on how they don't see anything wrong about profile 5 uhd bluray rip played on the appleTV 4K. They are actually watching fake DV !!!
I do have the glass blowing demo saved from elsewhere but there is clearly something up with the file. Mediainfo says it is HDR10 and it only plays back as SDR in Infuse. If I remux it it plays back as HDR10 even though mediainfo shows it being 8.05 DV. I have some LG P4 and P5 test files in .ts container. The P5s play as expected but the P4s play as SDR.
Infuse plays that one back as HDR10. My X800M2 plays it back as DV but without audio (unless I remux to ts).staknhalo wrote: ↑Sun Aug 22, 2021 10:46 pmThat Dolby Vision UHD 8.1 glass blowing test file doesn't have dvhe set as the codec ID (bug of their Dolby MP4 muxer)
Here is the file with the correct codec ID set: https://mega.nz/file/1XRRCS5C#1tRtdkEet ... XHiMOymkeU
