@quietvoid, I wasn't able to generate dv from madvr with the latest version of your tool. it kept complaining about --json not an acceptable argument for madvr files
Whoops! Should be fixed in https://github.com/quietvoid/dovi_tool/ ... 23ccb277fb.
Will be in the next release.

Hi guys, here are some tutorial videos. You just have to edit the bat files with notepad and change the path to your drive.
...
Thank you so much for those tutorials, I just have a question regarding the "active area". Should I use the top and bottom presets always when the final video has letterbox bars?

E.g. If I have HDR10+ WEB-DL (3840x2160) with letterbox bars and I want to convert it to DV, I always set the "active area" as you did in your video, right?

If a have a DV p5 WEB-DL (3840x2160) with letterbox bars and I want to create hybrid BD remux (the BD also has letterbox bars), do I also set the "active area"? (you had only WEB-DL without letterbox bars in your video)

(just out of curiosity, what happens if I don´t set it? Because I didn´t do it before since I didn´t know I should do that)

If the DV web-dl has black bars hardcoded in the video, the active area is already correct in the RPU so no need to modify it.
In other words, you only need to set the active area when your web-dl has cropped black bars(iTunes web-dl) because those web-dl don't have any L5 active area. (if they did, they would play overcropped on devices that use L5)

Most of the devices seem to ignore L5 (shield, x700) but the internal player of LG oled TV does use it so it's better to set the L5 correctly instead of top/bottom to 0/0 for every movie.

Thank you, I just have a problem with madVR - when I try to open mkv in madMeasureHDR.exe, it just opens and closes without generating measurements file. What am I doing wrong?

ha, maybe you just have to click on the install bat first (with admin rights!).

I'm having issues with mp4muxer that started recently.
All of a sudden it will not create a valid output file.
It is always 0kB and exits in 10-20 seconds.
I can see that it is using the disk and CPU for that time but then it just stops.
There is no error message and the files used as input have previously worked.
Anyone run into this before?
That only ever happened to me when trying to make base layer encoded FEL p7 file, it meant stuff is messed up/input was bad.
You are correct. Input was somehow bad. The program returned error 2 which is some form of input error.

I personally try to stay away from EVO releases. This group is not very reliable and I wouldn't blame quietvoid's tool for the issue you're having.
I did the same for that movie and used the Disney plus Imax versions instead which are higher quality btw and I didn't notice anything wrong.

seeing as how the eternals disk isnt out for another month or so, are you guys just converting from p5 to p8 for player compatibility reasons?

I prefer converting p5 to p8 because this way I can also watch it on my projector with madVR.
