Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Has anyone tried playing the Dolby Amaze and Leaf demo file? I'm playing them on my x700 connected to the denon x3700h but there's no sound. They are originally mkv files and I converted them to ts but still no sound.

Is there any other way to play these files?

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
you just need to add the core back into TrueHD, nothing new and it's been explained many many times in this thread. . you can do that with eac3to or thdmerge.deadchip12 wrote: ↑Fri Jun 10, 2022 11:37 amHmm so the x700 can't play that...

I tried Ugoos AM6B Plus (S922X-J), it only handles L1 and L2.RESET_9999 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 08, 2022 6:53 pmSo the appleTV really only supports P5 dynamic metadata...NiCE77 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 08, 2022 6:44 pmMany thanks, I've tested, but none of the trims work with Apple TV 4K 2021. I checked both in native and LLDV mode.
I checked it with more players and TVs, and the results are here: https://onedrive.live.com/view.aspx?res ... Vgr1mbxiSQ
Do you still have the GTV Chromecast ? is L2 working in LLDV?
You're the second person to say the Shield has no L2 response in LLDV.

Thanks. And I apologize as I didn't check this thread very often so there is a lot of info that I might miss.RESET_9999 wrote: ↑Fri Jun 10, 2022 12:07 pmyou just need to add the core back into TrueHD, nothing new and it's been explained many many times in this thread. . you can do that with eac3to or thdmerge.deadchip12 wrote: ↑Fri Jun 10, 2022 11:37 amHmm so the x700 can't play that...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Could you add also AAC/Opus 7.1 to DD 7.1 at 1024 kbps or 640 kbps. Oops it need DEE. i guess i will wait ffmpeg can do it.deadchip12 wrote: ↑Sat Jun 11, 2022 2:22 amThanks.

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Hello, I have such a problem.
I have a movie ripped from ISO to mkv

My LG G1 after converting it to MP4 only sees HDR I came across this topic and DoVi script. I' m familiar with the topic and it turns out that I need to convert the dovi dual layer (dvhe.07.06, BL + EL + RPU) to a single layer. I choose such options

and finally I get an error in accessing the file because it is in use by another process. I just don't know what file it could be because nothing else is running.
Only the
file is created in the dovi folder
Am I doing something wrong?

The x800m2 and TS combination works like a charm. Damn it’s easyRESET_9999 wrote: ↑Mon Jun 06, 2022 8:57 pmYes the disc must be decrypted but some of the latest tsmuxer versions had issues with DV, so maybe that's the problem?
I stopped updating it and I use an older version in my dovi.scripts tool pack and I have no issue.

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Not sure why it says that but as long as Uncharted_P8.hevc is in your output folder, you can ignore that warning. It looks like the script couldn't delete the TEMP folder.
Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Ok thanks for the info.
In the meantime, I figured out that the .hevc file is enough to run through MKVToolNix. It is a pity that the script does not mux at the end of the file .hevc to mkv / mp4, maybe it will be added in the next versions ...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
that mode/workflows will never mux because I don't know which audio track/subtitles you want to keep.
If you want muxing, choose the mp4muxer modes.
Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Thank you RESET_9999 for packing up all the tools and creating the scripts to help automate common conversions.
I recently purchased an X800M2 for native Dolby Vision FEL playback. I have about 100 movies currently ripped with MakeMKV (1.15.3 or greater) to ST-DL Dolby Vision, TrueHD/Atmos (no AC3 Core), and PGS subtitle MKV files.
I am looking to convert these MKVs to DT-DL TS/M2TS with TrueHD/Atmos + Silent AC3 Core for FEL playback on the X800M2.
I can re-rip all of these from disc, but I think that will take a lot longer than doing conversions of the files I already have on my server.
Looks like I need to follow MODE.P7->MODE.3->Workflow.2 with each MKV file to get DT-DL video and the THD+AC3 audio file I need and then use tsMuxer to mux the pieces back together.
Is there a better workflow I should follow?

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
No, that's the correct workflow you want to use.
Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
I still have some friends with the older 6-series LG OLED models and it seems they only play DV from MP4.
TS/M2TS doesn't work for these models.
Also the same limitations like only lossy audio supported (e)ac3 and no PGS subs (if that's even supported for MP4 containers).
External .srt work.
Tested using both Plex and Emby.
So I guess if you're sharing your videos over internet with Plex or Emby (and they don't exceed bitrate of 100mbit), Profile 8 with MP4/eac3 and external subs is most compatible across all devices.
Also I've been comparing FEL with MEL (profile
and the difference aint that much for most titles.
It's only too bad mp4muxer is such a slow application compared to TSMuxer.
I hope in the future somebody could optimize it a bit (making use of multiple threads for example).
