Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

Does somebody knows if there's a list or sheet online which has information on all UHD DV discs including the amount of "nits" ?
Because some of them are mastered in 1000nits and some in 4000nits.

Hi, RESET_9999 any way I can contact you regarding a doubt on one of your grade/master check list as "not sure!" , I have the itunes WEB DV P5 untouched, and wanted to see about injecting it to an UHD.

For National Lampoon's Vacation 1983 one.

I don't know, I measured the movie with Resolve and MadVR and the peaks max + avg look higher on the WEB-DL. It could be close enough (that's why it's in the ''not sure'' section).

Good afternoon, I'm using an online translator since my English is not very good, someone would be so kind to tell me where is the route to put the tools and tell me what tools I need because I think I need some ... if you could send me a private message I would appreciate it...... Thank you

[fransalas]

Thank you very much for answering me RESET_9999 I do not know what happens to me that I can not send private messages. I have another question in the adtuality I have an NVidia 4090 I have to activate something if I want to pass an SDR to HDR10?.. Thank you

[RESET_9999]

I guess you meant HDR to SDR? You should ask your question about that in the madvr thread.

Do you/we have any idea why they're doing this?
Is it better to just watch in HDR instead of DV for movies with FEL expansion if a FEL compatible player isn't an option?
Would it be possible to re-write the L1/L2 metadata so it's corrected/"unexpanded"?

4 options:
1- just watch in HDR10
2- bake the EL into the BL
3- generate a proper RPU in resolve for the BL actual brightness.
4- get a proper player

Expanding the brightness makes sense actually. It futureproofs the grade for when the TV will be brighter and it makes the content accurate on more type(brightness, HDR format) of display.

Because this way, people with brighter DV TV(G3) can enjoy brighter HDR and people with low nits DV TV can also get an accurate picture thanks to the trim pass and L1.
Then, people with HDR10-only TVs (low nits) can also get an accurate image with the 1000nits BL. If the BL was as bright as the EL, then those low-nits HDR10 TVs would look bad/clipped.

For a UHD BD like Back to the Future with both Expand Brightness FEL and HDR10+, do you feel it would be better to convert HDR10+ to DoVi with your tools or generate an RPU in Resolve?

[RESET_9999]

IMO, It's better to generate a new RPU in resolve because:

1- if you use hdr10plus, your min_pq will always be 0
2- HDR10plus avg_pq is VERY different than what Dolby Vision produces. DV has some specific calculations for the avg_pq.
3- with Resolve, you can make true CMV4.0 metadata (with L3) which improves tone mapping.

Thanks! Understood.

Another question... have you done much research yet comparing Resolve Analyzed output with typical metadata that includes L2/L8 trims?

Yes
For some reason, resolve does not export the L8 trims similar to when you set your project to cmv2.9 which does not export L2.
So for the resolve cmv4.0 output, a cmv4.0 device won't have any trims effect: only L1 + L3 but for a cmv2.9 device, automatic L2 trims will brighten everything below the tv capabilities and darken every thing above.

BTW, I think only one time I've seen an actual CMV4.0 rpu with active L8... strangely, everything else doesn't have any L8 trim or it's set to 2048 no effect.
There's a bunch of test files in my GD in which you can test pretty much everything DV related.

Is the L2 part actually true for both CMv2.9 and CMv4 analysis when outputting both when outputting CMv2.9 or CMv4? Or, do you just strip the L2 trims when processing with your script anyways?

trims are reset to 0 or removed depending on your script configuration. You can set the script to keep the trims but by default, they are overwritten as explained a couple of days ago in this thread

And you recommend the trims being overwritten for the reasons you stated earlier, correct?

But, just to make sure I understand correctly, can you confirm the following with regards to Resolve?

1. CMv2.9 Analysis & CMv2.9 output = L1
2. CMv4 Analysis & CMv2.9 output = L1+L2
3. CMv4 Analysis & CMv4 output = L1+L3 in CMv4 or L1+L2 in CMv2.9 Fallback
