Good news! There's been an update to TS-Muxer which now allows the importing of TrueHD tracks directly from MKVs!
yes, and soon it will also work on the x700 because right now tsmuxer doesn't add an ac3 core which the x700(and bluray players) need to be able to play TrueHD.
really a time-saver...
Oh, that's why then, thanks! :)

has anyone had this error with dovi tool?

Code: Select all

Error: Condition failed: `self.max_display_mastering_luminance <= MAX_PQ_LUMINANCE` (38528 vs 10000)
Did you use a JSON file to edit the L6 metadata in your dovi_tool workflow?

Something like:
"level6": {
"max_display_mastering_luminance": 4000,
"min_display_mastering_luminance": 50,
"max_content_light_level": 1272,
"max_frame_average_light_level": 823
}
If so, it looks like you (or something) set max_display_mastering_luminance to 38528 rather than the usual values of 1000 or 4000. The error is saying the max value is 10000.

If you're editing L6, dovi_tool needs all L6 values to be integers, not floating point values, so you need to multiply the typical min_display_mastering_luminance value of 0.0050 cd/m2 by 10000, so using the value 50 instead.

But you don't multiple the max_display_mastering_luminance. So if something set that to 38528, that would be a problem.

Single Track Dual Layer

Dual Track Dual Layer

Those are terms primarily for DoVi Profile 7, used with UHD BDs.

STDL is used in some formats, e.g., mkv files, where a single HEVC video track can contain the BL+EL+RPU (that is: the 2160p or 1080p Base Layer video substream + the 1080p Enhancement Layer video substream that may carry additional video data + the Reference Picture Unit (RPU) substream that holds the DoVi dynamic metadata).

DTDL is used in some formats, e.g., m2ts files on UHD BD, where the BL video stream is stored in one video track and the EL+RPU substreams are stored in a second EL video track.

MakeMKV can take in DTDL from UHD BD or mkv files, or STDL from mkv files, and output STDL mkv files.

Yep, I had this issue with Amores perros iTunes web-dl. typical apple , they often do stupid things like that.
original rpu:

Code: Select all

"Level6": {
    "max_display_mastering_luminance": 23040,
    "min_display_mastering_luminance": 50,
    "max_content_light_level": 1033,
    "max_frame_average_light_level": 272
}

Hey guys, many of the streaming versions contain e-ac-3+atmos, which doesn‘t exists on blu-rays. Blu-rays have usually a TrueHD Atmos and an E-AC-3 tracks. Unfortunately Truhd isn‘t supported by my tv, but e-ac3+atmos plays very well and sounds better that just e-ac3 or even dts-he master audio. Is there a way to take the atmos information from the TruHD Atmos track and embed ist into the e-ac-3, so we get the same as in streaming versions or even just downconvert truhd but keep the atmos?

My goal is to get from TrueHD Atrmos to E-AC-3 JOC (Dolby Digital Plus with Dolby Atmos)

you need DEE for that. The best you can get right now is e-AC3 1536kbps with ffmpeg.

https://www.rspeaudio.com/Dolby-Media-P ... -suite.htm

Code: Select all

ffmpeg.exe -i E:\input.mkv -map 0:1 -c:a eac3 -b:a 1536k -c:s copy output.mkv

I know that Final Cut Pro X can do that. See here: https://help.apple.com/finalcutpro/mac/ ... rbf72f3e96

Hi Everyone,

I know the windows process using tsmuxer and CMD.
Can anyone help me with the process of doing this on a MAC?
Which files to download, where should I keep them, and what is the command line
I'm using Intel base Macbook 2016 running on macOS Monterey 12.2

Is it possible to create BDMV folders or ISO files with Dolby Vision Profile 8 files and have them properly play back on a UHD Disc player, like an Oppo? Or is profile 8 not supported by the BD player spec?

I am asking, as I only have an Nvidia Shield, x700 and an Oppo 203 clone, and from what I have gathered, the Shield does not have accurate coloring for Profile 8 DV.

I had pretty much the same question a week ago.

Is there any way to make these to 7.06 / Oppo compatible files?

I've been successful with TS files, but would prefer ISO or BDMV files as they have better usability support (chapters, track names, etc).

To clarify: The ISO and BDMV outputs from TSMuxer only have audio playback, video is blank.

How? There is a small chance to run then the resulting TS through BDRebuilder. Only a theory.
