reset_9999 Whenever I do a quick RPU info summary (2-3) on a DV mkv the script renames the input file to "1.mkv". Is there a way to prevent it from renaming the original files? Thanks

It's supposed to instantly rename it as the original when its done ??

It must be the spaces in my paths. My movies are all in folders like the example below for Emby

Code: Select all

\Movies\The Last Witch Hunter (2015)
I just added quotes to the first part of the rename line to below and it works now.

Code: Select all

rename "%filepath%1%fileext%" "%filename%%fileext%"
Thanks

yes, the renaming is to deal with special characters and mkvmerge but indeed I forgot about the path.

Will correct in the next version but the code should be:


Code: Select all

rename %input% 1%fileext%& set input="%filepath%1%fileext%"
%mkvmerge_path% --output ^"%TEMP%chunk.mkv^" --compression 0:none ^"^(^" ^"%input%^" ^"^)^" --split parts:00:00:00-00:01:00
%mkvextract_path% "%TEMP%chunk.mkv" tracks 0:"%TEMP%el.chunk.hevc"
set DV="%TEMP%el.chunk.hevc"
rename %input% "%filename%%fileext%"

Yes I guess you can do it with 4-1-1 one episode at a time.

Good evening.
I just signed up to this forum just to thank Reset_9999 (and everyone else who contributed) for making available to everyone the great work that has been done to get Dolby Vision on various devices.

Thank you very much from a happy owner (now even more :lol: ) of x800m2.

All of my recent DaVinci Resolve generated RPUs have a min_pq value of 0. This includes variable aspect ratio files as well as cropped files. Am I doing something wrong?

FEL files always work and are 100% stable.

Did you plot L1 ? because if you just look at a random frame with the dovi_tool it can be hard to find one.
If you did your blanking(or timeline resolution) correctly it should not be always 0

you can also check in resolve:

left = blanking

when your two inputs have the same filename it causes conflict. just rename 1

EDIT: fixed in 1.6.3
