Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

On my end there's no verify sync file... Something must have gone wrong then.

you have to sync the web rpu directly in 2-6... Read the other note in the comments. When i did this tutorial, the script could not re-sync or fix the framecount mismatch in 2-6

I already synced the rpu using 2-6. I checked the final mkv file's dovi L1 plot and it was exactly the same as the original bluray file's dovi L1 plot, so that is a good indicator that the syncing was done successfully. I just didn't see the verify sync file. I may have deleted it accidentally. Will try with another movie.

No, because in 2-6, you don't touch L1/L2 and scene cuts of the original P7 RPU, you just add L3-L8-L9. This is exactly the same mistake I did in the video.
Also, even if you did plot the ''verify_sync'' rpu, L1 could still look slightly different because sometimes WEB has less or more scene cuts in the beginning which would change the L1 plot graph. What matters is that your ''verify_sync'' rpu scene cuts match the P7 rpu/BL

Well, the only group I would 100% trust is 3L and it's only because I know him personally and I know that he always does all the necessary checks.

Same for their Black Widow release and others.

Can you check the 3L release of Black Widow? They released DV HYBRID but according to your spreadsheet they are different grades?

Similarly, 3L released the following movies:
Star Wars 3 (your spreadsheet says the metadata is out of sync on the original P5 WEB-DL)
Inside Out (your spreadsheet says it has an MDL mismach)

Is it possible that 3L fixed these issues? I'm not sure they would have corrected Black Widow though if it's different grades?

[RESET_9999]

Yeah, the earlier remux might not have been checked, we didn't have the tools we have today. I'm surprised he didn't delete them though.
But since we have the tool to plot, check scene cuts, tone map P5, etc.. I know for a fact that he does all those checks.

Star Wars 3 seems to be a studio error. The DV metadata were created from faulty scene cuts so the result is not necessarily wrong/visible, it is just not as good as a DV analysis with proper scene cuts
Black Widow and Inside Out are definitely wrong though.

WEBMux is the highest quality you can achieve via streaming service, like remux in bdremux.

oops I downloaded the 2nd one instead of the WEBMux. Does it matter since I will only use the file to transfer the cmv4.0 rpu to the bluray version?

both should have the same DoVi 8.1

What about those x265 uploads? Do they have the same rpu as the hevc/h265 counterparts?

Ok i did it again and the verify sync rpu scene cuts matched.

If a movie is not in any of the red/green/yellow list in your spreadsheet, e. g. Creed III, does it mean this transfer process won't work or you haven't tested with that movie yet?

I just tried with another movie (Blue Beetle 2023) and the stream file I download turned out to be cmv2.9, not 4.0 (Blue.Beetle.2023.2160p.MA.WEB-DL.DDP5.1.Atmos.DV.HDR.H.265-FLUX)

I then tried Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom 2023 and it was cmv4.0 but I realize some numbers on my L1 plot are different compared to yours:

yeah, web rips should have the exactly same P8 RPU (CMv4.0) as original WEBMuxes/WEB-DL, UHDrips usually have P8 RPU (CMv2.9) converted from P7 MEL

I'm trying to download The Marvels (2023) stream version to transfer the cmv4.0 rpu to the bluray version and I see two uploads:

1) The.Marvels.2023.2160p.WEB-DL.DDP5.1.Atmos.DV.HDR.H.265-FLUX[TGx]

2) The.Marvels.2023.ITA.ENG.IMAX.2160p.DSNP.WEB-DL.DV.HDR.H.265-MeM.GP.mkv

The 1st one is 18GB in size and the 2nd one is 10.4GB. The 1st one seems to have higher bitrate, however the 2nd one has "DSNP" in the title, so I guess it's from Disney+ instead of Itunes (in RESET_9999's spreadsheet it says dont use itunes web-dl as its missing L4 - not sure if this still applies with the new dovi tool). Which one should I download?

Btw, i just downloaded a the stream file and it turned out to be cmv2.9, not 4.0 (Blue.Beetle.2023.2160p.MA.WEB-DL.DDP5.1.Atmos.DV.HDR.H.265-FLUX)

How do I know before downloading?

You can do quick read using 2-2 before downloading the whole thing, just make sure you download in sequential order if bittorrent

Edit:

I just quick checked the Blue.Beetle.2023.2160p.MA.WEB-DL.DDP5.1.Atmos.DV.HDR.H.265-FLUX and it's P8 CMv4.0

Code: Select all

btw @RESET_9999, what RPU is better to transfer from WEB, P5 or P8? Does it even matter if L3L8L9 data is the same on both RPUs? Asking because the P5 RPU bin file is 36 MiB larger than the P8 RPU for Dune: Part Two

Sorry my bad. I just rechecked and the version I downloaded was Blue.Beetle.2023.2160p.WEB-DL.DDP5.1.Atmos.DV.HDR.H.265-XEBEC[TGx], not Blue.Beetle.2023.2160p.MA.WEB-DL.DDP5.1.Atmos.DV.HDR.H.265-FLUX. And thanks for the tip to check before the download is finished.

Any idea on the first question regarding how to check whether the release is from itunes or disney+?

[Rororororo]

Any idea on the first question regarding how to check whether the release is from itunes or disney+?

again, quick 2-2 and check the RPU for "Level4": line, but I believe IMAX version is the one you need
also, DSNP means Disney Plus...

and another question @RESET_9999 - why does it matter whether the RPU has L4 if we only transfer L3L8L9?

Just checked the first file (the higher bitrate one) and there's no Level4 line, along with these:
L5 Left offset: L5_is_missing_you_should_edit...
L5 Right offset: L5_is_missing_you_should_edit...
L5 Top offset: L5_is_missing_you_should_edit...
L5 Bottom offset: L5_is_missing_you_should_edit...

I'm downloading the second file to check. It's currently at 17% already but dragging it into dovi scripts still shows nothing.

Btw, do you know why there's WARNING at the beginning of the dovi scripts when I open it and does it matter for this particular cmv4.0-to-2.9 workflow? I already downloaded and installed all the tools per tutorial.

I haven't checked all the movies

I just tried with another movie (Blue Beetle 2023) and the stream file I download turned out to be cmv2.9, not 4.0 (Blue.Beetle.2023.2160p.MA.WEB-DL.DDP5.1.Atmos.DV.HDR.H.265-FLUX)

My cmv4.0 source for this movie is MAX and not MA(movie anywhere)

How do I know before downloading?

you cant

I then tried Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom 2023 and it was cmv4.0 but I realize some numbers on my L1 plot are different compared to yours:

I edit L6 when I do P8 hybrid. It doesn't really matter, these values are ignored in DV.

L4 is when I do P8 hybrid, it doesn't matter when you transfer 3-8-9 to a P7 rpu since they already have L4.
All iTunes webdl are missing L4 and L5

It just means your tool pack is missing the Dolby professional tools. It doesn't matter for 2-6 but you can get them for free here:
