really excited about this tool,
registered to get some help.

i got an error on the:

4) MODE.P= DoVi Profile 7 Input (MKV/BDMV) -
-2) MODE.2= MKV/TS/M2TS/MP4 Profile 7 rip to Profile 8


Rewriting file with interleaved EL NALUs..
error: a value is required for '--input <input>' but none was supplied


TSMUXER still opened and a HEVC p8 file was created.

the created file is 6GB smaller than the original with the exact same tracks.

what input am i missing?
how critical is this error? can I ignore it?

Strangely for this movie, the color must be kept to full range... BCORE WEB-DLs are very strangely made.

The new hevc is ok and can be muxed.
The error at the end is the script trying to read an RPU that is not present. It's my fault and I'll fix it in the next version but right now you can ignore it or put the script folder on a non-windows drive.
The file is 6gb smaller which is normal because this workflow converts dual layer FEL to single layer profile 8. FEL alone can be 15gb+.

Your scripts very easy to use with Windows OS.
your free time and discretion, have a Deb version ?.
My Windows PC messed up.
I would love to install on Ubuntu, Wine does not work well.
Thanks for the 600 rpu(s) you gave me access to a few months ago..
My files are all in mkv container.
Thanks.

No sorry this won't happen, I have no desire in making the script works on OS that I'll never use.

Hi Reset_9999

I wanted to thank you for your great work and expertise.

and I wanted to ask if you could PM me. To see your video how to convert SDR to HDR.

My workflow is very long and cumbersome. and I think you have a better way. So I thought I'd just ask.

(3-1)

@RESET_9999

When using the updated script (3-1), do I need to generate a shot list file before running the script? At the moment if I just press enter, when prompted for the shot list, the script crashes after L5 input.

oops, I forgot to test the frame-by-frame options after I added external shot list support. Will fix in the next version.

Does (3-1) typically take hours to complete?

if you dont provide a shot list file, yes the scene cuts detection takes forever.
You can use scene cuts from resolve and do the DV in CM_analyze.

CM_analyze took just over 15 hours. Perhaps it's just my setup?

How do I export the Resolve Scenecut data?

I dont know, it takes about the same time as resolve on my end. rtx3070 + i9 13900ks
I noticed that if you touch your PC while analyzing, it gradually gets slower and can take hours.

In resolve, you import the prores file, do the DV analysis for just 1 frame, do the scene cut detection and export the XML.
The XML will have static metadata but it doesn't matter because we only want the scene cut file.
