Nvidia Shield Pro, UHD rip playback not always correct
Posted: Mon Jun 19, 2023 6:23 pm
Hello, just recently (past month or so) I finally got a Libredrive firmware loaded onto my BR drive and have started ripping stuff in UHD. I am encountering a weird issue where some of my rips (and not just my rips, some rips I downloaded) do not play back with the correct color/brightness ratios. I am playing these back using Channels DVR software on my 2019 Nvidia Shield TV Pro. I also tested in Kodi on that same machine and the results were identical. The TV (Sony 950G) does switch into HDR mode on both the "bad" and "good" rips so they are being correctly detected as HDR, whether or not they look correct when played back. I am not sure if the issue is in my Shield TV Pro, the TV, or the rips.
Of movies I tested, the following look great:
Harry Potter (all)
LOTR (all)
2001
Toy Story 1, 2, 3
These other movies I tested look very "washed out". A grey haze appearing over the frame as though my TV is not calibrated correctly:
Lost Highway
Mulholland Drive
Pulp Fiction
Captain Marvel
Wreck it Ralph
Ralph Breaks the Internet
Ex Machina
I can spot no significant difference in the MediaInfo between a workign and non- working rip. Here are two examples:
2001: A Space Odyssey (works):
Wreck-It Ralph (looks bad):
One other weird thing to throw in here, as I undersatnd it MakeMKV should support DolbyVision is it's rips now, however Pulp Fiction (which does say Dolby Vision on the disk) does not say Dolby Vision in the MediaInfo:
Anyone know what is happening here? Thanks for any insight
