ha for XML inputs. You guys should give more info about your input files when you report a problem.

replace lines 8312 and 8313

Code: Select all

     "%dovi_tool_path%" generate --xml "%filepath%%filename1%%fileext1%" --canvas-width 3840 --canvas-height 2160 --rpu-out "%output_path%%filename1%_RPU.bin"
	 set RPU="%output_path%%filename%_RPU.bin"
by this

Code: Select all

     "%dovi_tool_path%" generate --xml "%filepath1%%filename1%%fileext1%" --canvas-width 3840 --canvas-height 2160 --rpu-out "%output_path%%filename1%_RPU.bin"
	 set RPU="%output_path%%filename1%_RPU.bin"
or wait for the next beta.

Hi @RESET_9999! I re-downloaded the original release of After Earth 2013 BCORE with Color range: Full, it plays the same as Limited (after changing the flag) i.e. the movie is dark, although when comparing screenshots (6-8-3) it looks normal. Is there any way to make the movie play with Color range: Limited?

yep, I've compared HDR10/DV to the MA version, and the BCORE definitely looks crushed/wrong. Not sure if there's anything we can do about it.

It seems, for some reason, the dovi_tool can't generate a rpu from a Resolve hdr10plus json directly but if you just inject the resolve json to an hevc file and then extract it to a new json file, it works.
So either you do that or export a DV XML instead, or you can use my old RPU scene cuts: https://drive.google.com/file/d/15jug36 ... drive_link

Does Resolve not do automatic scene cut detection?
Do you have an example file?

Wait, I just tried with a sample (resolve 18.5) and it worked but I'm pretty sure I had a Resolve hdr10plus JSON that I couldn't convert directly to RPU in the past(had to inject/extract again).
He wants to generate HDR10plus in resolve and use the same scene cuts to generate DV with cm_analyze.exe .

@thirdmoon which Resolve version do you use?

Ok, strangely I can only reproduce with a full movie.
Original resolve json throws an error but if I inject and then extract it, no more error. The hdr10plus_tool json filesize is also much smaller.

@thirdmoon which Resolve version do you use?
@RESET_9999 I used 18.5 for HDR10+
I tried generating DV by letting it run for a few min, but DaVinci wouldn't let me export it and gave some error. I ended up generating DV for the entire movie and then used it in 3-1 which worked fine.

But I don't think I can use 3-1 as it takes way too long. I couldn't even finish the full process as it kept getting slower and slower. It was already 4+ hours.
While it takes 30mins in DaVinci.

I'm pretty happy with the 1080p + cubic scaling result and will stick to it for time being.

Hi, how I can bake the FEL into the BL. This is included in the @RESET_9999 script ?

With option 6-2-7, to create heatmaps and gamut visualizations, is there anyway to have the script read a directory full of screenshots instead of dragging and dropping one at a time?

Workflow 6-8-4. Input a mkv file and the script will automatically export heatmaps and gamut png for 50 frames. You can change the number of frames to export at line 76 in the latest beta.
set frame_number=50

What's the maximum number you can use?
