Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

[RESET_9999]

With mkv, it can have TrueHD, if ATV can properly handle it.

appleTV should be able to handle "fake p5" mp4 with LPCM.

[staknhalo]

No, I'm talking about P8.
the C8 (probably the C7/C9 too) cannot play the DV MP4 created by the latest version of the mp4muxer. We had to use the older/first version of the tool.

Wonder how/if the dvh1 flag has affected playback compatibility this entire time

True, so can all the iOS devices. lpcm(7.1), flac(7.1), alac(up to 5.1) works in mp4 container for apple native player.
7.1 loseless on iPhone built in speaker, lol.

Apple being Apple, won't play dvhe or hev1 like the rest of the world. They have extremely poor compatibility internal player.

Conspiracy theory: Apple absolutely has the ability to support other formats. However, people now need to purchase 3rd party APP like infuse to play other formats. Apple can take 20% through the App Store purchase. So they refused to support other formats.(don't take this seriously)

Also, I just noticed that the mp4 created by the latest mp4muxer works on the C2 while it's HDR10 only on the C8(we have to use the old mp4muxer).

Interesting, thanks!

Both files played entirely in Dolby Vision without hassle.

Well, guess sometimes we need to break some rules.

Did you guys test infuse?
Theoretically, fake P5(HDR10 bl and RPU) in MKV should also play by infuse.
With mkv, it can have TrueHD, if ATV can properly handle it.

Yes, Infuse triggers DV but no Rpu.

I also tested these 2 files cmv29.mp4 and cmv40 .mp4 on Atv via Plex.
cmv29.mp4 - all works, rpu works (DV)
cmv40.mp4 - L2 does not work. L1, L3 and L8 works and rpu works. (DV)
I don't know what these means, someone could explain these results?
Also Plex triggers Dolby Vision playing Profile 8 ts movies. Is it fake or real DV?

[sw5163]

Yes, Infuse triggers DV but no Rpu.

That's strange, it seems Manixx2020beyound played them by infuse and plex.

Stream it from Mac m1 to Apple TV
Stream it form pc to Apple TV works

Sorry to bother, but could you please tell me how did you stream video from pc(windows?) to Apple?
Im currently using file sharing through SMB, but I don't know if there is a better way.

Infuse
Plex

I've just tried the latest infuse on my iPad, no RPU either.
Looks like infuse cannot handle them properly.
No wonder I got banned for posting this on infuse forum.

Ahhh, this is the real word, unfortunately.

thanks for testing...
it means the ATV supports the newest CMV4.0 DV.

can you test this TS P5 file and see if the RPU is processed please:

CM v4.x replaces L2 with L8, so L2 is only used when the device doesn't support L8.
It's expected behaviour.

That’s strange infuse works both on my end on iPhones iPad & appletv with the trims.
Don’t know if LLDV mode played a part as that is what set too on appletv/vertex2

This file cannot be played trough Atv native player as it supports only .mp4 files.
Cannot be played in Plex as Plex does not support ts p5
Infuse plays as hdr so ...............

Many thanks.
