I can't reproduce the issue even with DoviBaker, it looks normal but different from my method.
Haven't tested if my method is still accurate though.
Did you check the whole clip ?? its just some random frame that flashes. The first flash happens at frame 68.
if yes then I don't see how its possible and why its happening ONLY with the transformers movies. As I said I checked hundred of movies with the same avs script.

Yes I see them with DoviBaker only, my method looks fine.
It's probably a bug in DoviBaker.

Just curious, how did you catch this originally, if it's only certain frames? Is it not possible other movies from that period and studio might have similar issue if passed through, but the exact frames just never showed up for a movie you haven't watched yet or are they obvious on DV plot or some other way without scrubbing/watching entire file?

with workflow 7-1 , I export 50 screenshots and got at least 10 faulty frames with both Transformers movies.
none of the other FEL movies I checked had this issue.

Ah, okay. I wonder if these specific frames have any unique/unusual data if you look at the .json from the FEL RPU? Otherwise, it may just be something in the HEVC encoding and DoViBaker combination bug I guess. Strange find though.

Thanks

AFAIK, there's only an iTunes webdl available and it's cmv2.9 (no L9).
So I guess you have a MA webdl ? can you post the result of the metafier validation please? (workflow 2-8)

You also have to allow external access to your file.

I'm guessing you're getting warnings and not errors? warnings is fine.

WARNING: 77 Shots contain identical Level2 values
Oops that’s my bad I enabled access, it lists it as an error. This is what it lists
ERROR: Undefined Level2 Target Display with ID: 27 at shot
then it’s a bunch of characters and there’s a lot of the errors and it’s just that same as that. Does L2 Metadata have to pass a Validation Test?

ok your file is cmv4.0 but only for the first two frames so you should remove it completely.
I fixed your file but it still has CMV4.0 and because the original was just for two frames, my fixed rpu generated static L3 metadata: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Nvixsu ... sp=sharing

L2 trim pass seems fine in the fixed version:

@quietvoid, can you explain your method ? Or send a link where I can learn about it? Thanks!

I check this thread from time to time but I have asked myself why you guys go through all that trouble.

An Oppo clone plays everything you throw at it besides profile 8 and 5. And there are now ways to convert profile 8 back to profile 7 and the outcome DV is clearly better quality than profile 8 - at least the same. Is it just to save some bucks not to buy an Oppo clone? And have hassles here and there and fumble with things instead to load a movie and enjoy it in full quality? Guys - that's nuts. And much too consuming time. Like in the old days: Life is too short to do video on a PC.
