Then i'll do that from now on. What is the combination for my lg c9 with your newest tool?
For a bluray disc input:

4-1-1 for DDP audio encoding
or
4-1-2 (no audio encoding)
i have a thousand of mpls file's in the bluray folder. which one i have to select?

or must i mux the bluray folder first with tsmuxer? what are the steps?

check in the tutorial folder, you have examples of everything you can do with the script
"Bluray Disc (BDMV) to Profile 8 DDP (TV-Shield-Zidoo-Firestick).gif"

you drop the bd folder and it will list all the playlists. Then just choose the one with the longest duration.

There are not really a lot of Bluray IMAX DV.
I hope Top Gun 2 will come out as IMAX DV.
Looks like Top Gun 2 is FEL IMAX.

Hi, just seen my friend z9x, are all Dolby vision contents are in 'bt2020' ie 'Dolby Vision BT2020' is the info bar on his lg oled c6 tv?

But the thing is I read on here a while back thanks to @RESET_9999 detailed player experiences that this gives wrong colors?

My MINIX U22 XJ-Max (Amlogic device) never has the BT2020 flag on DV contents and the colours are more deeper but more accurate in my eyes compared to the more brighter but mellowy colors on the z9x.

So to any Z9X owners, can this bt2020 on dv contents be removed?

Thank you.

the scripts is done after i did 4-1-1 with untouched bluray and selected the longest mpls file.

i think i must mux the hevc file to TS with tsmuxer? but the hevc videofile doesn't have a audofile?

the new script mux to TS. Unless you edited the bat file, you shouldn't have an hevc file or an audio file in your output folder. Just a TS file ready to be watched.
your image doesnt work. "502 Bad Gateway"

EDIT, now your image works and I see whats confusing.

You input BD in your dovi_script folder. The ts file (with DDP) is in there, it's just renamed "DoVi_scripts_P8.ts" because the script will rename the file according to the first folder in your path.
the old way used the playlist name but I was tired of always having to rename my files so I changed the behavior according to my setup.
So my input BD folders are always in the root of my drive ( D:\) so my files have proper output names. Now i realize how it can be confusing for people that have the BD on a different path(will look into a new way).

and as i said before this whole new TS muxing(not the renaming) behavior can be disabled to use the old one by editing the bat file and set "MUX.To.TS"=NO

I don't know... I just replicated what you did with the same BD and got a TS file with DD+ 7.1 audio as expected for that workflow (4-1-1) unless you disable it.
So if you have a TS file then, nothing else to do but if you only have an hevc file without audio in your output path it's because you selected 4-1-2 which is also expected for that workflow.

may be i've accidentally choosed 4-1-2. i'm doing it now again. i've selected 4-1-1. and then 00350.mpls. see the picture, this is the right way i think.

Would it be possible to fix other problems related to file paths?
you script fully works on D:\ path but if you are working on other paths (C:\ or whatever other location) some scripts or some subfunctions don't work.
despite these bugs i really appreciate your work on this script, it's just fantastic. Thanks!
