sounds like a good idea. let us know if it works.
One thing I'm worried is that connecting through the switch may cut down on the usb 2.0 speed and affect the bitrate of the movie. Is there a way to tell if a movie is not playing at maximum bitrate?

it cant live cutdown the bit rate if there are problems it would be stutters a read speed of about 12MBs should be enough for any UHD usb 2 can do about 40MBs in real world use

Has anyone tried playing the Dolby Amaze and Leaf demo file? I'm playing them on my x700 connected to the denon x3700h but there's no sound. They are originally mkv files and I converted them to ts but still no sound.

Hmm so the x700 can't play that...

Is there any other way to play these files?

you just need to add the core back into TrueHD, nothing new and it's been explained many many times in this thread. . you can do that with eac3to or thdmerge.
or with my script:

Many thanks, I've tested, but none of the trims work with Apple TV 4K 2021. I checked both in native and LLDV mode.
I checked it with more players and TVs, and the results are here: https://onedrive.live.com/view.aspx?res ... Vgr1mbxiSQ
So the appleTV really only supports P5 dynamic metadata...

Do you still have the GTV Chromecast ? is L2 working in LLDV?
You're the second person to say the Shield has no L2 response in LLDV.
I tried Ugoos AM6B Plus (S922X-J), it only handles L1 and L2.

Hello, I have such a problem.

I have a movie ripped from ISO to mkv
Image
My LG G1 after converting it to MP4 only sees HDR I came across this topic and DoVi script. I' m familiar with the topic and it turns out that I need to convert the dovi dual layer (dvhe.07.06, BL + EL + RPU) to a single layer. I choose such options
Image
and finally I get an error in accessing the file because it is in use by another process. I just don't know what file it could be because nothing else is running.
Only theImage file is created in the dovi folder

Am I doing something wrong?

Yes the disc must be decrypted but some of the latest tsmuxer versions had issues with DV, so maybe that's the problem?
I stopped updating it and I use an older version in my dovi.scripts tool pack and I have no issue.
The x800m2 and TS combination works like a charm. Damn it’s easy :D I don’t know if it is relevant for your spreadsheet overview, but the x800m2 works very well with a synology NAS and the synology mediaserver. I couldn’t find the serviio app for my NAS, so i tried it and it couldn’t be easier to set up. Thanks for all the help.

Not sure why it says that but as long as Uncharted_P8.hevc is in your output folder, you can ignore that warning. It looks like the script couldn't delete the TEMP folder.

Ok thanks for the info.
In the meantime, I figured out that the .hevc file is enough to run through MKVToolNix. It is a pity that the script does not mux at the end of the file .hevc to mkv / mp4, maybe it will be added in the next versions ...

that mode/workflows will never mux because I don't know which audio track/subtitles you want to keep.
If you want muxing, choose the mp4muxer modes.

Thank you RESET_9999 for packing up all the tools and creating the scripts to help automate common conversions.

I recently purchased an X800M2 for native Dolby Vision FEL playback. I have about 100 movies currently ripped with MakeMKV (1.15.3 or greater) to ST-DL Dolby Vision, TrueHD/Atmos (no AC3 Core), and PGS subtitle MKV files.

I am looking to convert these MKVs to DT-DL TS/M2TS with TrueHD/Atmos + Silent AC3 Core for FEL playback on the X800M2.

I can re-rip all of these from disc, but I think that will take a lot longer than doing conversions of the files I already have on my server.

Looks like I need to follow MODE.P7->MODE.3->Workflow.2 with each MKV file to get DT-DL video and the THD+AC3 audio file I need and then use tsMuxer to mux the pieces back together.

Is there a better workflow I should follow?
