Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

Post by Mrmorrison »

Good evening everyone.
I'm going crazy trying to limit the brightness of the subtitles, as my x800m2 can't handle them well. (Any video app on my TV doesn't have this problem)

I'm trying to use the script but I'm getting this error.

What I did:
- Source file: mkv
- Mux in ts with tsmuxer which turns srt into pgs
- Demux the pgs file (either with tsmuxer or with subtilteEdit)
- DoviScript 8-7

Can someone help me?

Btw what are the steps and installs I need to do to use your scripts? Thanks I'm on Windows.

If you just want to make DT-DL MP4, the installation is very easy... Create a folder without space or special characters and put it on a non-OS drive preferably.
Download the tools pack and MP4 bat file and put them in the folder you just created. Run the bat file, select 4-3, drag and drop input and that's it

Hi it took 3.3hrs for 69gb mkv remux, is that right?

Yeah, the speed depends on your HDD/SSD. Regular HDD can be very slow.

I use two NVME pci-e gen4 drives and it takes less than 15 minutes.

How is the 1080p to 4K upcaling on the Ugoos? Seems that the only reason I would keep my ub9000 would be to play 1080p Blu-rays with panasonic's upscaling, but if the ugoos is comparable, I think I'll ditch my player.

I don't know. I think dmdreview tested upscaling but I'm not sure.. Ask him: https://www.avsforum.com/threads/pictur ... t-63232842

By default Coreelec plays 1080p files in 1080p resolution, so the upscaling is handled by the tv.

I think it only does bilinear upscaling otherwise, but I haven't checked.

Random question for RESET_9999, or anyone else who knows:

Looking at the "GRADE/MASTER CHECK" tab on RESET_9999's spreadsheet, there are films listed there for which it says we should not inject the DV RPU from WEB into the HDR10 remux, because they aren't suitable for various reasons e.g. static DV, different grade.

If someone had created a profile 8 hybrid for one of these unsuitable films anyway, is the HDR10 fallback for this bad hybrid still correct? i.e. is the HDR10 fallback of the profile 8 hybrid identical to the HDR10 remux?

HDR10 playback is fine as long as your player doesn't tonemap DV to HDR10 like the x800m2/x700 can do when you have DV set to ''on'' and play a TS/M2TS rip.

Just wanted to say thanks for mentioning the AM6B+ RESET_9999, just ordered one and am very excited to try out CoreELEC on it. Using Kodi for my remux DV collection without having to convert to TS files for the x800 is going to be such a better experience.

You'll love it!! I can't believe we had this device this whole time and it only needed proper coding... Big props to @cpm00 for figuring out the fake tv-led bug.
This shows how implementation in devices is important. Just look how poorly the AppleTV and Shield perform with the colorspace conversion pattern: https://slow.pics/c/NBQVuXQw
Btw the C2 internal player also has colorspace and YCBCR clipping problems.

People who are upgrading from a Nvidia Shield will notice a HUGE difference, especially for FEL movies that expand brightness but also with playback. No more dropped frame or stuttering and no more red push.

The only downside is that we have hundreds of DT-DL TS rip to remux to ST-DL MKV. Thankfully mkvtoolnix now supports the conversion.

@RESET_9999, thank you for the good findings. I have a few questions regarding AM6B+.
1. AM6B+ is CMv4.0 device, right?
2. Can older CMv2.9 TVs benefit from AM6B+ overall?
3. How stable is the experience AM6B+ plus coreelec?
I am wondering if it is worth the update from x800m2 + AppleTV setup.

1- Yes
2- Yes, the Ugoos is more accurate than the ATV and more practical than the x800m2.
3- 100% stable so far and already watched over 10 movies (FEL P7 & P8)
