Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
I’m having a problem playing the dolby vision files on an external hdd connected to lg oled c7 via usb. The video stutters heavily at certain parts. The hdr10 version runs fine though. Movies tested are Jigsaw (2017), Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom (2018) and Overlord (2018). I’m pretty sure the bandwidth of usb 3.0 on the c7 should be more than enough for this right? Not sure what causes the stuttering.

Has anyone noticed that all dv mp4 files created using the mp4muxer result in files that not seekable or is it just me.

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
were you getting framerate errors during the creation of your mp4s? if it's a remux sometimes they need to be repaired with mkvtoolnix. I haven't seen this happen with m2ts files.deadchip12 wrote: Tue May 14, 2019 5:04 pm I’m having a problem playing the dolby vision files on an external hdd connected to lg oled c7 via usb.

My TV is a Roku TV and Plex doesn't natively support the DVHE but will play if you force it to. When trying to seek forward or backward though always results in the file starting from the beginning no matter where your at. I haven't tried using the USB media player.

No I got no errors (I used your program. Does it notify framerate error if there is any?). And I used m2ts files.Grencola wrote: Wed May 15, 2019 1:14 amwere you getting framerate errors during the creation of your mp4s? if it's a remux sometimes they need to be repaired with mkvtoolnix.

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Ah I see. Yea every model has their own unique struggles. The usb media player may play better than forcing unsupported media in plex. you might just be out of luck though unless you grab an x700 or something similar to play them oncyperous wrote: Wed May 15, 2019 1:50 am My TV is a Roku TV and Plex doesn't natively support the DVHE but will play if you force it to.

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Sorry to hijack your post but is the x700 the "best" non-Oppo player to play full DV rips currently? Some of the reviews I see for it are a bit worrisome. I've started ripping but actually don't have a 4k tv yet but plan to soon. Will need a player if I can't play DV via htpc.Grencola wrote: Wed May 15, 2019 3:46 amAh I see.

My X700 is stable. Wish it had gigabit ethernet, but other than that it works. You also have to manually enabled DV in the menu which can be annoying.
Sony X700 -> Onkyo TX-RZ830 -> LG C8

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
the x700 is just a quick cheap fix to play dv mp4s. it won't play full rips in dv, only hdr10. Oppo and its clones are the only external devices that will play full rips in dv properly.Redhawk2000 wrote: Wed May 15, 2019 12:56 pmSorry to hijack your post but is the x700 the "best" non-Oppo player to play full DV rips currently?

enabling the dv option it has just essentially forces fake dv from the base hdr10 layer without seeing the actual dv Metadata. the tv might say dv, but check the player info - it will only be hdr10. I thought the same thing at first too. (see pg. 9)bgalakazam wrote: Wed May 15, 2019 4:27 pm My X700 is stable. Wish it had gigabit ethernet, but other than that it works.

That is lame. I would want the full rip quality. Oppo or clone it is I guess.

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Hi folks !
Yesterday night i tried my first DV movie on my new LG C8 and it worked like a charm ! Im very impressed by the quality of DV and the TV in general. Everything works great, just some little issues, a few seconds of video lag (due to usb low rpm hd maybe ?) and just 2 seconds of some visible artifacts. Maybe due to some errors during encoding, i dont know. Btw nothing much at all, the movie was very enjoyable. Thanks again !

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Hi. Which movie did you watch and what kind of artifacts did you notice? As for the lag I discovered that it could be very likely caused by the hard drive itself. I once encountered terrible lag using on hdd but when I changed it to another it was fine.fib1985 wrote: Thu May 16, 2019 8:31 am Hi folks !

Artifacts like a large green strip in the middle of the screen for a few seconds. Yeah, tonight i will use another HD (7200rpm) and i will see.
