I'm not sure if anyone noticed but TSMuxer was recently updated to properly handle TrueHD audio now. So no need to demux or convert anymore.

Sounds like your M2ts is an original file from a bluray disc.
You have to remux your bluray disc with tsmuxer otherwise you get fake DV via USB and HDR10 via the network.

@RESET_9999 Thank you for the comprehensive script. I have a question regarding MaxCLL and MaxFALL values assigned to the RPU, when working from a madVR HDR measurement file. Should the MaxCLL and MaxFALL values be pulled from the measurement file or manually assigned? I have some HDR10 files that do not list MaxCLL or MaxFALL values, when viewing with MediaInfo. I'm in the habit of leaving these values set to "0" and allowing them to be set from the measurement file.

I asking because the "MODE.madVR.TO.DoVi.workflow.8" option seems to be overriding them, in the case when they are set to "0". I modified the script a bit by removing the L6 "editor" lines and injected the original "%output_path%rpu.bin" created. This allowed the MaxCLL and MaxFALL values to be from the measurement file.

Is this the expected behavior or should they be set to "0"?

If it worked for you, can you please share how to use tsmuxer. I also have X800M2 and have a bunch of BDMVs but do not know how to use tsmuxer.
Thanks

Yes, it's not finished yet and most importantly I'm still learning how to write a script but I think most of the workflows/modes are working now. There might be some typo that makes some workflow to fails, I didn't test all yet.

also, the tutorial videos are outdated a bit compared to the script.

When I connect the usb hard drive that contains movies into the x700, can I cut/copy/paste movies' files from folders to folders directly on the x700? Because based on what discussed here, the bluray folder of a movie needs to be placed in the root folder of the hard drive in order to be played without issues on the x700, so if I want to switch to another movie I have to do some cut/paste between folders, and I don't want to have to unplug the hard drive from the x700 and plug it into my pc everytime for that.

yeah, I'm not sure about that one...
it's probably better to use the metadata from madvr measurements. I still have work to do in the madvr to dovi workflows.

well if you use a bluray player like the x800m2 / x700 / oppo, you still have to add an ac3 core otherwise the TrueHD wont work but soon tsmuxer should be able to generate a silent core and merge it like THDMERGE.exe does.
