Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

[H4M3D]

I've tried the DVDFab with Earth One Amazing Day DV, however when I choose MP4.Dolby Vision and add the Blu ray folder it throws an error containing "The current profile you choose cannot support your video source", And then after the video has been imported it disables the MP4.Dolby Vision option. What is interesting is that it recognizes that it is Dolby Vision under the HDR tab after the video being added, but it can't convert it somehow.
Has anybody encountered this problem?

I was able to get the slider working but it's still fairly low and get a 46GB output file from a 80+ GB input file. This solution for me is a no-go. I'll stick with MP4 passthrough and 5.1 1.5MBit audio or HDR + Atmos and lossless for now. The titles I would want everything I can just buy.

Until a straightforward method comes out (other than Oppo, of course) I am happy with the two compromises.

Yes, i encoded blackkklansman that have a original video bitrate of 67Mb, the encoded file have a bitrate of 48Mb, that's a lot of loss. I just mailed DVDFab if future updates will allow higher bitrates.

How'd you manage to make Aquaman go from 52.7 Mbps to only 48.2 Mbps? That's a more acceptable loss, for me..

The video bitrate of aquaman is 52.7Mb, that's almost the max bitrate that DVDFab can produce, so the loss is less. If the movie is 67Mb than the loss is more, because DVDFab can go max 50Mb.

Maybe they're trying to make it fit on a 50gb bd-r disc. Hopefully they up it to 100gb bd-xl in the next update.

I successfully encoded "Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald " with dvdfab (thanks @Donpablo80 ).
It works on my Lg C8.
Then I tried to remux the video track with the atmos audio track to get possibly lossless audio and dolby vision.
As Donpablo80 said, txmuxer does not recognize the video file made by dvdfab, so I tried to mux via toolnix changing the file extension to mp4.
No chance.
this is the mediainfo from the mp4 created in toolnix:

Ok guys

Finally I can do it, make a single layer DV of a movie and dont work on a Sony Tv x900f, I have audio only.

So dont work for Sony Tvs.

Feel frees to try it.

I'll try with ffmpeg and a few other tools and see if I can get it.

Ok guys

Finally I can do it, make a single layer DV of a movie and dont work on a Sony Tv x900f, I have audio only.

So dont work for Sony Tvs.

Sony's really got it locked down hey

I dont know what the hell happends with the fucking Sony OS, but now I want to play a demo DV file, befored played good, but now, black screen and only audio.

So I reset the TV and the demo play again, I can't understand nothing, maybe the file created for dvdfab "corrupted" the video app? i don't know, i wanna try again with the rip of the movie created with dvdfab and I post the results.

Really really hate the OS of Sony, is the worst with the fucking laggy Android, i want the fabollous LG OS and play Dual layers of DV

[hepe9]

Ok

Final results, the rip of the movie in DV single layer its play but bad, all colors are green.

So this method doesn't work for Sony Tvs

Looking the mediainfo of the demos, they play good, has 2 differences. Codec ID : mp42 (mp42/isom/dby1) vs mp42 (mp42/dby1/isom) and HDR format : Dolby Vision, Version 1.0, dvhe.05.06, BL+RPU vs 1.0, dvhe.05.09, BL+RPU.

I don't know if is important or no, just is a crap and dont work on the fucking Sony tv

That's about what I would expect from Android TV
Maybe just pop in a $50 Amazon fire tv 4k stick, it prolly works fine with single layer files lol..

[Grencola]

Damn, my old crappy win7 laptop can't make single layer mp4s. it sits at 12% complete everytime, and uses 100% CPU until I stop it. left it for over 21 hours @ full CPU but remained the same, surprised I didn't kill my laptop lol. it works fine with dv passthrough. I was hoping I could make a. ts file with hd-audio to try on different devices :/

[generalmilk]

oh man, Sony is only one left over. This sucks.

[Grencola]

I think CloneBD can now rip to DV mp4.

Just tried the CloneBD 1.2.5.0 for Star Wars: The Last Jedi rip.
It worked wonderfully. Thank you!

It works also with tsMuxer GUI 2.6.12 (i use this)
You just have to "add" the first m2ts and then "join" the second m2ts, ... etc ... then select the tracks you need, and demux.
For Star Wars 8 it's easy, only 2 m2ts
You should try Gladiator ...

A great tool to find how to chain the m2ts is BDInfo (https://www.videohelp.com/software/BDInfo)

exemple

Uhhh, so the largest m2ts in the stream folder isn't always the entire movie?! there's a couple other m2ts files with the last missing minutes that need to be joined?! if so then this is a problem, as my script just uses the largest m2ts, and I (plus others it helped) would have countless incomplete dv mp4's. I've watched so many and from opening sequence up to the credits there was no missing parts. even dvdfab uhd ripper only uses the largest m2ts when you add a bdmv folder.

When ripping a BD disc, you should always try to use the correct playlist from the Playlists folder. Most of the time I find out by running index.bdmv with something like PotPlayer.
Most UHD BDs only use one MTS file, but most regular BD discs use a bunch. Sometimes to put Directors Cut and Theatrical Cut on the same disc or maybe old time file size limit. The Playlist also has the chapters included, which are not included in the MTS files. I do most with my ripping with MKVToolnix or StaxRip demuxing features.
