Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

you don't need tsmuxer for the Shield. Use Mkvtoolnix or makemkv

thanks for the info great help.
i went to get the specific tsmuxer that yuescope linked us but euhm the link shows me to a strange website without any download

thanks again for that info,will version 53 of mkvtoolnix work? last time i checked it did i think... its because i have a seedbox and they cant ugprade it atm beyond version 53 :/

Has anyone done a P5 to BD remux for West Side Story? I am measuring the top and bottom L5 areas and I have checked it 5 different times. My eyes may be deceiving me, but I am not getting equal numbers for the top and bottom areas.

Measuring 280 for the top and 276 for the bottom. Am I losing it?

the dv web-dl is not cropped so it probably already has proper L5.
you only have to edit L5 when the web-dl is cropped.

I dont have this movie remux but if i look at the scene encode, it's 1608px so 276/276

I appreciate your responding and all the time you've put into this thread and the tools! Much appreciated.

I am still a bit confused... Perhaps I'm misinterpreting things, but the version I have is cropped, meaning there are no black bars in the web-dl. The resolution is 3840x1606. I just demuxed it again and extracted the RPU, and when reading the RPU there is L5 section and no active area offsets. Perhaps I am missing something, or I got a bad release? Thanks again.

Ah, ok thanks! I will look around for a different version just to make things simpler. What happens if you don't edit the L5 active area? Will the black letterbox bars be off color or grey?

It could cause some visual defect as @Quietvoid explained recently.

Hi, I'm new here and I want to tell you that I really appreciate what you're doing here. I have a big problem with some BDMV files (few, but very important), Gladiator, Braveheart, Interstellar, Saving private Ryan. I run them on the UBP-X800M2 on USB and for information, the running time is 0.00.00, why? , can't scroll back and forth, why? I passed them through tsMuxeR (M2TS), for Dolby Vision and nothing, they behave the same, what can I do, they can be solved? Thanks for any suggestions.

[rosavanwinkle]

so the command that im using in ffmpeg is not working....

it creates like a really small file and lots of errors in my cmd
this is my command based on the uhd to profile 8.1 for dual track dv files:

Code: Select all

ffmpeg -i "F:\conversion\The.Godfather.1972.2160p.BluRay.HEVC.TrueHD.5.1-ESiR[IPT]\BDMV\STREAM\00005.m2ts" -ss 0 -t 120 -map 0:0 -c copy "F:\conversion\exit\BL.hevc"

the original:

Code: Select all

ffmpeg -i path\to\the\file.m2ts -ss 0 -t 120 -map 0:0 -c copy path\to\BL.hevc

the cmd output

Do as @Gatorman suggested and use my script...
everything is automated, you don't have to mess with cmd-lines anymore:

does this also work for profile 8.1?

[RESET_9999]

the video is a profile 7 to profile 8.1 conversion

[rosavanwinkle]

i accidently closed tsmuxer after it was done in the CMD with your script
is this the right settings to convert after its done with the cmd stuff? or do i change anything else?

it doesnt matter if you close tsmuxer without muxing. the P8 file is still in your output folder.
But since you're using a shield, you should edit the bat file and change the muxer to mkvtoolnix.

The web-dl I have needs a cut at the beginning to match the length of the UHD BD but I haven’t had time to work out how much to cut and how best to do it.

@gacopl I had no time to run your tool, so maybe you can answer me here. Does your scrip create MP4 that is hybrid format? I mean, DV+HDR10 compatible, so devices with no DV support will still run HDR10? Thanks.

[rosavanwinkle]

Your tool worked perfect in combination with your video thank you very much.
i do have one question that might be a hardware issue or setting on my end i messed up
playing the movie with truehd will not activate the dolby vision,it goes to hdr,but when i select the ac-3 audio layer it will use dolby vision
