Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Really? Since the x700 is relatively cheap, maybe people should just buy it and play the dolby vision m2ts files from it instead of going through troubles to create working dolby vision mp4 files?Donpoku wrote: ↑Mon Jan 25, 2021 11:36 amYesdeadchip12 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 25, 2021 7:32 amIs the x700 able to play dolby vision m2ts file directly?

The file needs to be remuxed with tsmuxer to M2TS or TS though. Still easier and faster than the mp4 method.

What is you audio setup? Dolby atmos? Is the x700 able to output dolby atmos to the receiver while playing m2ts dolby vision files?

yep, the x700 can output any lossless audio format + Dolby Vision FEL. Subtitles also work. Cinavia free as welldeadchip12 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 25, 2021 3:34 pmAh yeah I saw your signature![]()

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Is it known why tsMuxer has to be used to remux the m2ts file from the disc again to m2ts? Is the m2ts files on the discs wrong in some way?RESET_9999 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 25, 2021 3:08 pmthat's what a lot of us here have been doing for monthsdeadchip12 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 25, 2021 2:55 pmReally?

Is it still required to manually change the output mode to DV or has that been changed in any recent update?

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
The DV flags are somewhere else for a uhd-bd structure (not in the m2ts file itself).

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Which version of tsmuxer should we use in this case? And is it simply adding the original m2ts file into tsmuxer and click ts muxing?RESET_9999 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 25, 2021 4:45 pmThe DV flags are somewhere else for a uhd-bd structure (not in the m2ts file itself).

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
If you use the x700 for HDR10 content as well, then yes you have to turn off DV otherwise this player applies fake DV to any TS or M2TS file (even bluray discs).
Then how do I know if the tsmuxer files are true DV? ------> just look at the player OSD.
Then you could say use MKV container for HDR10/SDR? ----> Well just like tsmuxer, this player only supports TrueHD audio with an AC3 core.
![Sad :(](./images/smilies/icon_sad.gif)
It's not really an issue for me since I only use it for DV content and I use my madvr HTPC for SDR/HDR10.

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Is it really cinavia free? Even my old BDP-S6700 has it. And I heard (a long time ago though that) sony is the only studio to use cinavia protection on its discs.RESET_9999 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 25, 2021 3:55 pmyep, the x700 can output any lossless audio format + Dolby Vision FEL.

I don't know about burned bluray disc playback but via USB file playback, yes it is cinavia free.magnetoeric wrote: ↑Mon Jan 25, 2021 6:04 pm

bought mine 3 years ago and never updated the firmware, maybe someone who bought it recently can confirm that nothing changed...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Thanks! Do you know if those custom builds only work on Shield, or can I sideload it on TVs (such as my sony x900h) with android TV?quietvoid wrote: ↑Fri Jan 22, 2021 1:39 pmI don't know about the Shield, but the Firestick only triggers Dolby Vision for the TV when there is proper metadata.
Otherwise, there is an option to have Dolby Vision enabled all the time. I don't think the Shield can do that.
MP4s with official releases, MKVs with custom builds: https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?ti ... pid3003730
Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
They work on the Shield and Firestick, at least these: https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=360018
Some reports that it works for some on Sony in that thread, you'd have to try for yourself.

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Sorry I don't really understand this part... Say a movie is hdr10 only, why don't you play the m2ts file using the x700 but a htpc instead?RESET_9999 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 25, 2021 5:30 pmThen you could say use MKV container for HDR10/SDR? ----> Well just like tsmuxer, this player only supports TrueHD audio with an AC3 core.
