Convert Dolby Vision Profile 7 to 8.1

Post by voidfel » Fri Mar 03, 2023 9:25 am

Hi there,

I have a lot of Single Layer DV Profile 7 BluRay Remuxes (dvhe.07.06, BL+EL+RPU) with TrueHD Atmos 7.1 Audio that I want to convert to DV Profile 8.1. For that specific use-case/workflow, what are the steps to demux, convert and then mux, while making sure the final output has everything else untouched (same audio, same subtitles, etc.)? I know there are a lot of instructions about dovi_tool, mp4box, ffmpeg, etc, but still not sure what to do for P7 to P8.1 specifically.

The objective is to be able to play them in the future on my Apple TV using Infuse with proper Dolby Vision using on the fly P8.1 to P5 retagging feature that will be supported in near future.

I will run the conversion workflow on my M1 Pro Macbook (or Synology if supported).

Thanks a lot!
