Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

the best trackers dont let people in for money.
You need to get invited by someone already in but I believe they are sometimes recruiting users from other private trackers so you might be lucky if you are on one of those trackers...

This is the first time I hear about such system, why wouldn't a pay version be good? I mean you give money for access no?

[RESET_9999]

i dont know

Does nobody have a invite for BHD? What is the website?

I wonder why the subtitles of 4k hdr films are super bright when I watch it on the sony x700 (for which I have to manually extract the subtitles and lower their brightness using external software), but now on the ugoos am6b+ they are appropriately bright.

@RESET_9999

just checking 3.0.0, what does it mean and why is it bad (red)

1st Frame is a Scene Cut: YES (good)
Consecutive Scene Cuts: YES
Base Layer: ICtCp (DoVi P5)

Edit:
ok got it "D/SC_Flag=F" is old 2-1-1 to fix it

[RESET_9999]

it's just a warning. Dont edit it if it's from a retail source.
This is for the old P8 hybrid remux when we were not duplicating or removing frames correctly as explained here:

This is actually from such P8 remuxes, I was checking some

How to fix the RPU mismatch problem? the last frame in most of the cut-scenes has different brightness than the cut-scene itself.
I'm unable to import the movie into Resolve directly in its RAW format. However, I'm able to when I trim it using ffmpeg to keep its properties unchanged otherwise it would lose its HDR format.
I would like to convert this movie into SDR Dolby Vision.
Any suggestions?

just look on the Resolve media page, and you will find the framecount of the prores file.
Then in the xml, modify the duration of the last shot(probably just 57 or 55) to match that framecount.

How to fix the RPU mismatch problem?

[Rororororo]

some combination in the new MODE.I (1) in 3.0.0/3.0.1 seems not to work like "DF", the section with options is a bit confusing and could be a bit more readable, also what are valves v and 7?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*You can select more than one value(except: e/m/p/s/7/v) but no space between values: EG: 569r4 (default= Exit)

edit:
some other bugs, clicking any button at the end after extracting RPU from the stream, starts the extraction process again

Right you cant resync and edit the scene cut at the same time and I didn't write it in the exception because you can select 569f or 569d but not 569fd

the section with options is a bit confusing and could be a bit more readable

I wanted the options to all show up in a single line, and i got used to it, you will too. Feel free to tell me if you have a better idea.

also what are valves v and 7?

7 = P7 to P8 (redirect to 4-1) This choice will only show up if your input is a P7 video
v = remover (redirect to 2-2) This choice will only show up if your input is a video file, you cant remove DV from a RPU input

some other bugs, clicking any button at the end after extracting RPU from the stream, starts the extraction process again

fixed in beta

I'd at least separate them with spaces rather than slashes, swap the value with the description and use one letter case.

Thanks for clarifications.

Do I only need to modify the duration for the last scene??
Also how can I re-encode the remux while retaining the Dolby Vision metadata? Which software allows this?

yes

encoding scripts in my signature.
