This has been discussed many times in this thread.... DV content that is cropped (no black bars) will have grey black bars on the x700 / oppo and probably all the bluray players.deadchip12 wrote: ↑Sun Nov 21, 2021 10:56 amWith which movies are you seeing grey letterbox bars? The letterbox bars are properly black on the c9 internal player but grey on the x700?
There's nothing we can do about it but since cropped content usually comes without lossless audio, I just use my C8 internal plex app with ARC to send the audio to my AVR.

you do what you want but muxing an IMAX DV with a non-IMAX video is a bad idea because the IMAX L1/L2 metadata contains values from DV analysis that includes pixels of the IMAX area and this is something a L5 edit cannot fix.
