Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Thanks Jayper!
So BDMV is only 1 movies at a time huh? In that case I will gladly move to .ts files. I don't mind losing chapter information as I usually never use the function to begin with. It would be nice of course but no disaster.
It would have been nice to be able to use DLNA, but something tells me that streaming +/- 75 mbps bitrate files will just severely lag and buffer and whatnot. I don't know if anybody here has succesfully used it?
I looked at the spreadsheet for the x700 using TS files and it reads:
M2TS & TS tsMuxeR
* forced subtitles must be selected manually
* no chapter support
* can't play two movies in a row without locking up
can be unlocked by playing this file
* cannot FF/RW long movies
No chapter support is fine, and I don't plan on playing 2 movies back to back.
What does 'forced subtitles' mean? I didn't get this part.
And it says cannot FF/RW long movies. What's in this case being defined as a 'long movie'? Anything longer than 2 hours? 3 hours?
Thanks guys.

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Forced Subtitles are subtitles that display even when you have subtitles turned off. A classic example is Sean Connery speaking Russian at the beginning of The Hunt for Red October (1990).sultanmehmet wrote: ↑Mon Mar 06, 2023 3:36 pmWhat does 'forced subtitles' mean? I didn't get this part.

Is this the same as 'hardsubs' aka 'baked in' subs?dcoke22 wrote: ↑Mon Mar 06, 2023 6:38 pmForced Subtitles are subtitles that display even when you have subtitles turned off.

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
It is different, because they are not 'baked into' the video. They are generated during playback by the player.sultanmehmet wrote: ↑Mon Mar 06, 2023 8:57 pmIs this the same as 'hardsubs' aka 'baked in' subs?dcoke22 wrote: ↑Mon Mar 06, 2023 6:38 pmForced Subtitles are subtitles that display even when you have subtitles turned off.

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
I understand. I am now muxing them with Tsmuxer in anticipation for my x700 to arrive probably in 2 days. I muxed 1 with succes but got a “Reading buffer overflow. Possible container streams are not syncronized. Please, verify stream fps.” error during the second one.
This doesn't matter wheather I do TS muxing or M2TS muxing. It happens every time at 13.9%. I don't really know where to go from here. I thought it was perhaps audio related but it's the only English audio track on the Blu-Ray so I don't really have a choice.
My input file was the m2ts file (90GB) if that's important at all.
EDIT: I also read on the spreadsheet that you can also use m2ts files. In this case, can I just drag on drop the m2ts file unto the HDD? Every audio and subtitle track that I want to use is the default one (english & english). And they are m2ts so there is no TrueHD core to not be present.

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Use the mpls (playlist) file for the movie as the input, not the m2ts file.sultanmehmet wrote: ↑Mon Mar 06, 2023 10:27 pmI understand.

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Thanks for the suggestion. I had also tried that and that also failed, at the exact same place. Then I tried another movie and that one also failed with the same error but at 32%. Worst thing is I don't even understand the error very much so I don't know how to solve it. Tried Googling it but people seem to be getting this error since 2009 so I could be all sorts of things.
Can somebody confirm if I can just copy the 'raw' m2ts file to my HDD? Or does that also need to be muxed beforehands to a muxed m2ts?

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
No, you'll get "fake" DV if you do that. You must remux to TS/M2TS or BDMV with the nightly tsmuxer.sultanmehmet wrote: ↑Tue Mar 07, 2023 1:42 amCan somebody confirm if I can just copy the 'raw' m2ts file to my HDD?
It sounds like you're using the very old tsmuxer. I use this version (had issues with the latest ones)...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Good morning.
I followed the Generate Dolby Vision and HDR10plus videotutorial in Davinci Resolve.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZdFiqATo_j8&t=325s
I generated the two files "DV.xml" and "HDR10plus.json", launched "DoVi_Script 1.7.0" Choice 6>5, dragged the video file (mkv) and after that the file "HDR10plus.json".
I get the message "Unable to find the specified path".
I have done the procedure several times, but I can't figure out
where I'm going wrong.
Thank you very much

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Looks like you didnt download and set the tools path: https://drive.google.com/drive/u/1/fold ... J2M9DvOQRu
You should also update to 1.7.6 in which you can now use (1-1) to inject both XML and json.

Is 1.7.6 official now? Or still in beta? Thanks again for all of your effort on this project.RESET_9999 wrote: ↑Tue Mar 07, 2023 12:04 pmYou should also update to 1.7.6 in which you can now use (1-1) to inject both XML and json.

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
yes it's the latest stable version but a new beta 1.7.6.1 coming up later today.
-- HDR10plus_tool and Dovi_tool must be updated to the latest version (hdr10plus to DV was totally wrong with the old dovi_tool)
I suggest you re-do any HDR10plus to DV conversion you did with the old dovi_tool
see: https://slow.pics/c/G6OH6k9p
-- HDR10plus plotter no longer requires python
-- new workflow that can batch remove CMV4.0 metadata block (2-1-6):
most of the CMV4.0 movies only have a L8 100nits trims and L2 has no effect on CMV4.0 device(shield,firestick,tv internal)
pattern to see what I'm talking about:
CMV4.0 original: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1lR1u9H ... share_link
cmv4.0 removed: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ZqS9Ml ... share_link
-- bugfix: (2-1-5) batch edit L5 failed after the first file for mkv input
-- Code cleanup

Looks like mega took this folder down. Anyway you could reupload?RESET_9999 wrote: ↑Fri Feb 24, 2023 8:19 pmHi,
you can use the script in my signature (workflow 1-1) to inject both metadata. Or use the Dovi_tool and HDR10plus_tool to inject manually, you can find these tools on quietvoid's GitHub.
see my youtube channel (link in my signature), i made a video tutorial a while ago.
if you want to save some time, I already generated DV in resolve for most of the movies, here are over 600 RPU files ready to be injected
Code: Select all

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Thanks so much! Apologies, but I am not yet well-read on the CMV4.0 vs CMV2.9 discussion. Is there a reason one would prefer one versus the other? I'm guessing it is more future-proof, but at this time most hardware doesn't support it? Is there a downside to keeping it?RESET_9999 wrote: ↑Tue Mar 07, 2023 6:53 pmyes it's the latest stable version but a new beta 1.7.6.1 coming up later today.
