this is not UGOOS related but I just learned that if you remux DV to bluray folder structure with tsMuxer and you put the files in the root of an USB drive, the Sony x700 is able to play it in dolby vision with chapters, working FF RW for long movies and no more green screen bug when you stop playback.

Wow, that's fantastic! I need to try that too! BTW, I see you got a Ugoos delivered. Are you able to confirm that it in fact supports the FEL titles and plays it correctly?

It's definitely processing the FEL as @mattmarsden confirmed. The Power Rangers ending credits is bright white and because I fast-forwarded, it kind of froze and it caused ghosting. I clearly saw the grey HDR10 BL and the EL on top of it.
At first, playback was not very stable but now Power rangers is playing for an hour and everything looks stable.

I'll have a deeper look at the colors on my OLED tomorrow. it looks very promising.

you drag and drop the correct mpls file into tsmuxer and create a new bluray structure.

You can just use the decrypted original folder back, too, then without any extra remuxing, no? Any way to possibly do this over the network or USB only?

Can confirm it works and it's awesome to have an untouched blu-ray folder structure! I tested with Mission Impossible Fallout and it worked perfectly with no hiccups or freezes. FF, chapters, and everything else are smooth and super fast! Great discovery!

I tried Mission Impossible Fallout with the remuxing method and it worked perfectly. But now that you mentioned this, I am wondering if what you are saying can also work. It seems easier to drag and drop a decrypted folder versus going through Tsmuxer.

This is the first thing I tried... :)

you have to remux with tsmuxer. you can't keep the original structure with the menu.
Huge downside though, It only works if the folders are in the root of the USB drive(no network) so I don't think you can use this method with more than 1 movie on a drive. Can be handy for long movies that you can't usually FF when in TS container.

even though the folder is really named BDMV, the x700 sees it as an AVCHD structure:

I wonder why the Blu-Ray community has not hacked the Sony X700 player. It seems like a very capable player. It handles pretty much anything you throw at it ( except the MKV since its something new and I doubt it will ever support it )
