Thanks for your hard work @RESET_9999

So much info in the thread, so what i gather is by converting a DV mkv with FEL to profile 8.1 we loose FEL?

So it’s the same a playing a DV MKV on a zidoo or dune? FEL is discarded and only the rpu is used?

yes FEL is discarded but know that not every FEL movie can be converted to P8 (or played on non-fel devices) because some of them are expanding the picture brightness when BL and FEL are decoded by the player.
So the DV metadata in the RPU is meant to be played with the FEL brightness ONLY. Playing these FEL movies on a non-fel device will result in an image darker than the intended look.

Here's a list of FEL movies that expand brightness (still looking into my library to find more):

Hi, Does this mean that we will never be able to put the profile 8 on the films you mention? Is there any way around it?

[RESET_9999]

Is there any way around it?

no , not without baking the EL into the BL. (require re-encoding)

Are sony bluray players still the ultimate devices to get for playing dolby vision remuxes?

yes

What do you mean by
putting the el in the bl? Are you talking about generating a DV XML file by resolve and re-injecting it? Like in this tutorial? https://youtu.be/ZdFiqATo_j8

no, I mean the EL and BL are re-encoded together which results in a new BL that will work properly with the original RPU(converted to P8).

like this...

BL+EL baked + original rpu converted to P8:

Thank you for your explanation. I appreciate it.

Reset, after baking the BL and EL (with DoViBaker, I presume), what are the steps to get the original RPU converted to P8?

Thanks!

[RESET_9999]

what are the steps to get the original RPU converted to P8?

dovi_tool.exe -m 2 or with the script(1-1) in my signature

Hi, need help, trying to figure out the source of the red push problem on the Shield tv.
I need to do a DV test, but only with L1, remove the rest, how to do it right. Is there some kind of utility?

it's not a metadata problem and anyway, the bluray Doctor Sleep only has a 100nits trim pass which is not used obviously in DV playback.
if you still want to try, just generate dv with madvr and this will get you metadata with just L1.

perfect sample to test it: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PUwrol ... share_link
also very noticeable on quietvoid L11 test file: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1OwS0Te ... share_link
in fact, as soon as there's white, it's noticeable.

Unless you're an Nvidia dev or have means of reaching out to them, this problem will likely never get resolved. But good luck!

With L2 solved, the bug remains, in fact, I need a file for the test, which will be played as a DV. But it will not apply the dynamic data, even L1, or they will be prescribed so as not to interfere with the current characteristics of the film. Is this possible to do?
I want to understand if the dynamic data is to blame, or if the DV processing itself is defective.

Well I have already managed to find and prove to Nvidia a problem that has not been solved for 3 years and they fixed it. So nothing is impossible. Everything can be solved, I already have an idea about the source of the problem, but I want to go from the other side and check the alternatives for the origin of the problem.

True for TV-led mode only
