Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

Hey all. As of recently, I'm getting the current errors for script 3-1. Worked great in the past, however, it recenty started spitting out errors:
Any ideas as to what it could be?

looks like your scene cuts file is wrong. whats the input release name?

"S01E01 - The Holy Trinity Full is SDH 2160p HDR10 Amazon WEB-DL.mkv"

No "(". Purposely removed the "(" and ")".

[RESET_9999]

"S01E01 - The Holy Trinity Full is SDH 2160p HDR10 Amazon WEB-DL.mkv"

o yeah, I forgot about the old amazon HDR10plus webdl without a profile. They need --skip-validation in order to extract the metadata/shot list.
will be fixed in the next version.

The problem is that the BL is 203759 frames and the EL & RPU are both only 203758 frames. I can't do that with 2-1-1 though since it'll only effect the RPU, right? Any ideas on how to remove 1 frame just from the BL in the AVS?

What about using the Preview tab in StaxRip to ignore the final frame from the BL before encoding?

Preview will not work if the script can't be played in the first place.

Anyway, no reason why the trim in avisynth wouldn't work if it's just the BL that need trimming.

RESET_9999, Hi! When using DoVi_Scripts_MP4 (last version) point 5, if you apply an mkv with audio delay to the input, then we get a "broken" mp4 at the output. What is the problem and how can it be fixed so that everything in mp4 is identical to the mkv file?

Thanks brother. I'll wait patiently.

no need to wait, I already released a fix a couple of hours ago.

[TheEqualizer]

thanks for reporting, I'll check it out.

And also, for interest, I ran the finished movie through the script, the script completely recoded all the sound from eac3 to ac3, spoiling it, he can't just transfer everything from the mkv container to mp4 without changes?

[biet1234]

thank you for these scripts! sorry for beginner question.

I have a mkv file with 1 HDR track and 1 dts 5.1 audio track. I want to remux to mkv file with original HDR video track and the audio track converted to Dolby digital (plus). Is this currently possible with these scripts?

what? that's not possible. First, the script only has codes to encode DDP and not DD and secondly, the script will encode only lossless audio which you can disable at line 65.

As for the delay, I use delay cut and it changes the codec id but the file still play in DDP fine.
can you give me your problematic file?

Another nuance is whether it is possible to somehow save all the signatures that were in mkv, otherwise the script changes the names of the tracks. In other words, you need a full copy of the entire contents of the mkv container (there is no HD sound there initially), with delays, video captions, each audio track, subtitles, and so on

your DDP tracks are bluray compliant with an AC3 core and it looks like delay-cut doesn't support this type of audio, unfortunately.
And AFAIK, mp4muxer doesn't support delay. With the latest mp4box, I can set a delay but it doesn't work with the very old mp4box needed for proper DV support in all the devices(except apple)

As for the track names, yes I could keep the original name I guess...

It would be great if you added the ability to completely copy everything from the mkv container.
As for mp4box, and if I don't need the old version, mp4 should only work on relatively new models from 2019 and newer, the latest version of mp4box copes with this perfectly

yes you can try the new mp4box but you will have to use a very old version of the script (when I had Apple Mp4 workflows) because the newest script uses delay cut even when it's set to use the new mp4box.

I'm not sure I care enough about MP4 and those bluray compatible DDP tracks since they are very rare on retail discs and non-existent on streaming.
I know they can be encoded from lossless but the tracks I tested so far are bad quality IMO. I can even hear it in your sample, original and custom doesn't sound the same.
