Yes.

I really have to mux the .mkv file through Makemkv to make the DV 08.03 visible.
You probably have to update your MKVToolNix. Don't use ffmpeg for muxing to MKV.

Also, you can just use ffmpeg without having to demux before extracting the RPU.
Example:

Code: Select all

ffmpeg -i input.mkv -c:v copy -vbsf hevc_mp4toannexb -f hevc - | dovi_tool extract-rpu - -o RPU.bin

Somehow I'm getting a error when using that command. Thats why I seperate them. So .mkv -> hevc, after that I use dovi_tool -m 2 extract-rpu video.hevc.

When I extract RPU from the Enhancement Layer, the resulting RPU length does not match the video length.
Mismatched lengths: video 163840, RPU 128978
This error has occurred in one movie so far.
I can send the sample EL.hevc file if you need via PM.
The EL was probably cut off somehow.
In the past tsMuxer did that, you should try getting it directly from the m2ts with ffmpeg.
I don't need the sample because it wouldn't be very useful unless you're 100% sure it's complete.
Thanks! It's working with ffmpeg!

I have a problem with another movie: Bumblebee (2018)
When I extract RPU with -m 2 parameter from the EL, and inject the resulted RPU.bin to the reencoded BL, the dolby's mp4muxer does not work with this injected hevc file.
It finishes in less than 1 minute and creates a 0-byte file, however, mkvtoolnix makes a working P8 mkv file.

Atmos sound and dolby Vision (Mel and fel) is working now on my ugoos AM6 plus box in kodi.
But that error that you've to start a movie sometimes still exist.
But that horrible stutter from a long time ago is gone
I have to do some more testing
Edit im getting some short sound dropouts with dolby true-hd atmos every 10 minutes, I hope they can fix this, time will tell

The difference between the native player , and orher player like vimu etc.. is night and day
How do you send video to the native player exactly?
With the ugoos built-in cifs client share. It is seen as a local media for the android system.


I am currently looking to buy a sony blue ray 800 for p7 dolby. I am tired to analyze everything. I want to rip dtdl an be donne with it

Just saw a discussion on avsforums regarding the sony x700 bluray player: Is the dolby vision we get from playing a dolby vision file via usb connected to the x700 tv-led or player-led?

it doesn't matter if you play DV content from USB , bluray or streaming apps. The x700 will send the best mode according to your TV EDID.

I'm one of the crazy bastards that purchased an AM6+ lol. Is this the apk you are using then -- https://www.dropbox.com/sh/0n37s3j3iybw ... a.apk?dl=0 ??

I'd like to test.

Hi I have installed the nexus master version, because that's the one it gets updated first

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/5fjkqnuvwa7z ... bi-v7a.apk

There are often updates at the moment because they are in the process of fixing bugs, As I said, sometimes I still have very brief sound dropouts. But the stutter of the video is gone now.
But that dropouts are also on the shield right now, it has nothing to do with the ugoos only.

there is an updater add-on that you can update the dv build from within kodi. but you have to be registered in the forum to be able to download it. and as I said I use the nexus nightly build here is the link to the updater addon, if you want to use it
The forum is in German

https://www.kodinerds.net/filebase/inde ... dard-Fire/

i really hope they can fix all of the bugs. then the ugoos player would be the perfect player due to the possibility of processing fel dv.
half a year ago, Kodi was not usable on the ugoos because dolby vision videos and hd sound stuttered. They are now one step further

Hey,
is there an easy way to Remux an MKV with Dolby Vision to an MP4 with Dolby Vision?
My Oppo Clone can't play MKV + DV.

TS/m2ts or bluray folder is what you want.
