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

I can see the values changing within Resolve. :D

I'm still working on getting the script to run correctly.

reset_9999 deserves his own topic with his revolutunary tool. it's sad for newcomers to start in this topic that is already outdated.

yes, it's not easy to install, I struggled myself.

you have to install python and a couple of modules.
https://www.python.org/downloads/

you can install a module(ijson in that case) by typing this in a cmd window

Code: Select all

pip install ijson

@Reset_9999

Would it be possible to have a video.mkv.measurements file as an input file?

This workflow allows an already generated .measurements file? It's asking me for a video file. I'll have to get back to my workstation to get the error.

reset_9999

the muxing time of shooter and the godfather untouched bluray is very short, and the end TS file is only between 13GB and 17GB. what is the reason for this? (4-1-1)

i've selected the longest mpls file. i'm sure of that.
