Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

If you're trying to play files on the Apple TV 4k, I would skip TSmuxer entirely and just stick with mp4muxer since AppleTV can't do lossless atmos anyway. You can try creating a single layered DV file using yusecope's tool with the -mode 2 option and then muxing it (with a converted ac3/eac3 audio file) into an mp4 using mp4muxer and the --dv-profile 5 option.

I want to make DV with truehd. Appletv can play truehd 7.1 without Atmos, Infuse will decode 7.1 Truehd to PCM.

You can try using -mode 2 of yusecope's tool to get BL+RPU single layer file and then mux it in TSMuxer with the TrueHD track to get a dvhe.08 file. Not sure if this will work on the Apple TV but it is a single layer file that should be similar to profile 5.

Thank you for tip, It did not work.
Plays as hdr with appletv.

Sidenote: I've tested some of the full TS DV remuxes I've made (all working on the shield w/o issue) on the internal B9 player and have had some mixed results. Some movies play without stutter (The Meg, First Man) while most others have the stutter issue others have reported (Black Panther, Doctor Sleep, Midway). These are all dvhe.08.06 files from the older version of tsmuxer and v2 of yusecope's tool. Also profile 7 dual track/dual layer DV files made with mp4muxer does not seem to work at all on my B9 internal player. I know others have had success on their C# models, but I'm wondering if the B# models might lack the hardware for dual track files due to its inferior processor.

Did you do something special for Doctor Sleep? I tried playing it normally with Atmos track and it crashes Plex on the Shield.

Nope, nothing in particular. Did you try turning off the PGS subtitles?

Didn't even mux them into the ts. My resulting file had just the DV video stream and Atmos track.

I created a profile 5 sample file here with atmos. Give it a try if you'd like to see if it works on your apple tv:

Hm, that's a weird one. Maybe try disabling the new exoplayer if you're using that? Or try playing it in kodi to see if it makes a difference.

Thanks that worked perfect, can you please tell me hove you made this

Ah so it's just the profile variable that's preventing the file from playing correctly. For this test, I simply edited the file here: https://github.com/justdan96/tsMuxer/bl ... Reader.cpp to ignore the logic in choosing the dv profile based on the video stream and forced it to set the profile to 5. This was only done for the purpose of this test, and unfortunately I don't understand the subject enough to know what really goes into differentiating between a profile 5 and 8 video. This is definitely not a permanent solution, but maybe @jcdr can consider implementing a user defined dv-profile parameter in a future version of tsmuxer similar to mp4muxer?

Hi, Following the guide can't get FEL to work on the oppp, the file does work in HDR10 on the 2017 shield, can't check on the 2019 shield as it is at my weekend address (won't be there again till Friday)…

Thanks for trying.
If you have time, could you please try what follows with a MEL movie?

Since you own an OPPO 203, could you do me this favour: while playing a movie (my tool + tsMuxer, please try both a FEL and an MEL movie), can you press the "info" button and take a screenshot (both for the Multimedia information section and for the HDMI output information section)?
It is important, however, that in the player settings, Color Space and Color depth (Video Output Setup) are set to AUTO.

Hi Yusesope, here are the shots from the Oppo, 1917 that won’t play and reports as 8bit output, which makes sense and Missin Impissibke Fallout which plays fine, both are supposed to be FEL.

1917 worked great after ripping the BL, EL with TSMuxer, and using Profile 5 with MP4Muxer. It was, hands down, the best visual experience I've had in terms of Dolby Vision. Everyone that has DV needs to see it.

I agree, I calibrated my LG c9 last weekend and I wasn’t too sure about the Dolby Vision profile that Calman autocal created, till I watched 1917... brilliantly graded.

Hi, can confirm this mux of 1917 that didn’t work on the Oppo works in Dolby Vision and Atmos on 2019 shield pro, shame I will have to have 2 muxes of some FEL movies till it’s sorted, particularly because the Oppo is a better picture, the Colours are more balanced.

Is there any other way to try and mux so we get a file that works on both?

Regards.

Hi! Can anyone explain the correct steps for the Nvidia Shield 2019?
Many thanks!

Yep, that scene with the blue morning sky…beautiful.

I prefer to leave the profile selection as automatic.
I understood that profile 8 is when there is backward compatibility with non-DV players (eg HDR10, SDR...), which is the case with the Blu-ray base layer. However the Blu-ray DVs muxed to single track DV are not fully compliant with profile 8 because of the chroma sample location, which might explain why the player chokes on these. I will push a fix to tsMuxer to change to profile 5.
