Hi, is it somehow possible to convert profile 8 to profile 5?
No. Are you sure your TV doesn't support profile 8?
It works on the C8 with ts files.

weird, profile 8 m2ts files worked in my lg b6
Maybe it's because of the HDR10+

EDIT: I've tried to remove HDR10+ but it's not working either.

Hello, I haven't been here for a long time... but is there now a player that can play mkv with DolbyVision Duallayer (native EL) ?

My LG TV + Bluray Player can only play mp4 with AC3 Audio.

A question for those with a Sony x700. I picked one up on sale about 3 weeks ago and just wondering if this glitch I'm experiencing is happening to everyone? When playing a dual track .ts Dolby Vision file via USB, if i stop the film and select another DV film its like it tries to play the two tracks independently one on top of the other and the screen is scrambled. Powering off and on fixes the issue for the next selected film but reappears again if i attempt another.

Can I ask how you remove HDR10+ because I need to do that on some files.

You can try this: https://gist.github.com/quietvoid/175d7 ... 9eb1bd2c38
It's based on yusesope's script.

Looks like what I need - can you tell me how I use the script though? I've installed python but I'm not sure how to use it.

You need to demux the video first, and then run the script on the HEVC file.
example: python hdr10plus_remove.py -i video.hevc -o processed_file.hevc

When I convert HDR10+ do DoVi, do I need to change something in generator_example.json or can I leave it as it is?

You should adjust the JSON. Probably removing the level2 list as well as specifying proper level6 metadata.

Thanks for that. Is there an idiots guide on HDR10+ to DV conversion?

I wrote up how this idiot does it here:

https://www.avsforum.com/threads/author ... t-60952335
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Turn HDR10+ metadata into Dolby Vision metadata**
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Command 1: 'hdr10plus_tool extract Video.hevc -o Metadata.json' (Extracts HDR10+ metadata and saves to .json file)

>>Next commands go through Dovi_Tool and v0.5.0 minimum required<<<
Command 2: 'dovi_tool generate -j Extra.json --hdr10plus-json Metadata.json --rpu-out RPUPlus.bin' (combines metadata from edited 'Extra.json' - template is below and you need to do one for every title specifically - and metadata from extracted 'Metadata.json' and combines+converts them into p8 RPU metadata format)

Command 3: 'dovi_tool.exe inject-rpu --input Video.hevc --rpu-in RPUPlus.bin' (Injects HDR10+ generated RPU metadata into HEVC stream turning it into single layer Dolby Vision 8 stream)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Blank Template for 'Extra.json'
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
{
"length": (title specific framelength here without parenthesis),
"level2": [
{
"target_nits": 100
},
{
"target_nits": 600
},
{
"target_nits": 1000
},
{
"target_nits": 2000
}
],
"level6": {
"max_display_mastering_luminance": (title specific metadata info here without parenthesis),
"min_display_mastering_luminance": (title specific metadata info here without parenthesis),
"max_content_light_level": (title specific metadata info here without parenthesis),
"max_frame_average_light_level": (title specific metadata info here without parenthesis)
}
}

1- extract HDR10+ into a json

Code: Select all

hdr10plus_parser.exe -i X:\HDR10+.hevc -o X:\HDR10+.json
2- create a json with L6 metadata (static HDR metadata: match your source)

Code: Select all

{
    "length": 0,
    "level6": {
        "max_display_mastering_luminance": 1000,
        "min_display_mastering_luminance": 50,
        "max_content_light_level": 0,
        "max_frame_average_light_level": 0
    }
}
3- generate DV metadata

Code: Select all

dovi_tool.exe generate --hdr10plus-json X:\HDR10+.json --json X:\L6.json --rpu-out X:\DVrpu.bin
4- inject DV metadata

Code: Select all

dovi_tool.exe inject-rpu -i X:\HDR10+.hevc --rpu-in X:\DVrpu.bin
