Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

[Angryunibrow]

Thank you so much. Whats the best way to demux the hevc layers? Also what commands do we use in mp4muxer? Thanks!

To demux the HEVC files

Code: Select all

ffmpeg.exe -i bluray:\path\to\bluray -map 0:0 -c copy %userprofile%\Desktop\BL.hevc -map 0:1 -c copy %userprofile%\Desktop\EL.hevc

To use MP4Muxer

Code: Select all

mp4muxer_64bits.exe --dv-profile 7.06 --input-file %userprofile%\Desktop\BL.hevc --input-file %userprofile%\Desktop\EL.hevc --output-file %userprofile%\Desktop\mp4muxer_out.mp4

Any chance someone could put together a complete post with steps involved to use this new tool for single layer, plus adding in an Atmos track?
I'm interested in creating single layer files with Atmos to play on the Shield.

I'm using DVDFab now, but would like to try out this method.

Using a 1 minute test from Shazam! Single layer DV is produced with no obvious issues, I muxed in Atmos audio with the special tsmuxer build and everything seemed perfect on the shield. I'll let you guys compare the quality as I'm not great at spotting subtle differences. I'm holding off converting my whole library until you all confirm it's perfect.

WELL DONE yusesope !

What did you use to demux the layers? It crashes out when I add mine

A brief guide to yusesope's single layer DV tool

extract bl_el_rpu_builder.zip on a hard drive with plenty of space
Use ffmpeg to extract layers as follows
ffmpeg -ss 0 -i bluray:\path\to\bluray -t 60 -map 0:BL_STREAM_ID -c copy %userprofile%\Desktop\BL.hevc
ffmpeg -ss 0 -i bluray:\path\to\bluray -t 60 -map 0:EL_STREAM_ID -c copy %userprofile%\Desktop\EL.hevc

Run start_bl_el_rpu_builder.bat
drop in the BL then press enter
drop in the EL then press enter

The tool will do it's magic

you will then see a file called BL_EL_RPU.hevc has been created

Using the special tsmuxer build from RESET_9999 post https://onedrive.live.com/?authkey=%21A ... ion=locate

drop BL_EL_RPU.hevc in
then drop either your m2ts file for the movie or the movie playlist file in tsmuxer
delete the two video tracks that are added from that file leaving only BL_EL_RPU.hevc
don't delete any audio files (unless you don't need specific tracks)
Press start muxing and wait
once complete you should have a single layer DV file which plays on the shield

How did you get this - dvhe.08.06

Mine output as 7.06

[baker99]

I have no idea, are you using the tsmuxer build from RESET_9999's post? I think I read something in the tsmuxer forum about it reporting 08.06 for some reason, I think it should be saying 07.06

[RESET_9999]

the file looks exactly like DVDFAB single layer remuxed in tsmuxer ( dv 5.6 become dv 8.6). EL is gone.
so unless yusesope did something different, I dont see how this will be any different (colors) than dvdfab SL.

I have no idea, are you using the tsmuxer build from RESET_9999's post? I think I read something in the tsmuxer forum about it reporting 08.06 for some reason, I think it should be saying 07.06

Yes, please confirm I did it correct.

I dropped the tsMuxeR.exe in the TsMuxer folder, removing the "original" one.
And then I click on the tsMuxerGUI.exe (2.6.12) and I'm assuming its using the modified tsMuxeR.exe

Yes?

Yes that's all I did, unless I mixed up my versions of tsmuxer somehow, there seem to be quite a few around now!

I get this error:

Updated Mediainfo, now shows 08.06 - so mine matches what you did also.

the file looks exactly like DVDFAB single layer remuxed in tsmuxer ( dv 5.6 become dv 8.6). EL is gone.
so unless yusesope did something different, I dont see how this will be any different (colors) than dvdfab SL.

I guess we need someone to do some comparisons with a couple of the "trouble" movies like Hereditary and Joker where we have seen the color shift.
