Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

[yusesope]

Is there anyway to strip the HDR10+ information with eac3to or ffmpeg during this process?

the HDR10+ metadata are transported within the prefix SEI NAL unit(in particular those with payloadType = 4)

Using ffmpeg you can prevent this type of unit from being added to the raw stream but I don't consider it an orthodox thing to do (because you would eliminate all prefix SEI NAL units and not only those with payloadType = 4).
The choice is yours!
If you want to try, when you use ffmpeg after each "-c copy" add:

Code: Select all

-bsf:v filter_units=remove_types=39

But, the mp4.ts you did, works smoothly on my C8. You are a magician Yusesope but the only question is : how did you do this?

could you explain what you did? I'm really interested in figuring out why some movies don't work on the Shield.

As I have already said, the procedure is useless because it takes too long and then it would only add further confusion.

[MastaG]

So I tested @jcdr428 PR: https://github.com/justdan96/tsMuxer/pull/269
It now gives me profile 06.
...
Gemini Man was working great using an older rev of TsMuxer which would give it profile 08
...
In all test-cases I was using "mode 1" BL+EL+RPU.
...
I'll revert back to an older rev of TsMuxer and retry both movies.

It makes no sense to use my tool with the -mode switch set to 1 (BL+EL+RPU) and then expect tsMuxer to return a profile 8 file.
Profile 8 cannot contain the EL layer!
The version of tsMuxeR you are referring to was bugged: it has been corrected starting from THIS problem report!
Do you want a profile 8? Use the "-mode 2" switch!

To try to understand why the 4/6 profile does not work on your TV it would be useful to examine the LOGS of the PLEX client.

Ok I get it, so mode 1 with EL is either profile 4 or 6 and mode 2 without EL should proile 5 or 8.
So perhaps the "bugged" version of TSMuxeR giving me profile 08 on mode 1 hevc files was discarding the EL data in the internal player therefore playing it back smoothly?

I'm using Emby btw, will see if it's possible to get a client log file, else I'll install Plex.

[mulucy]

Wow how many posts!
This is better than Game of Thrones (I hope it will not end like the eighth season )!

@mulucy it is an old version of tsMuxer, right ? Try my fork bb51a5f : it contains correct profiles 2 to 8. The commit is pending merge with the official tsMuxer.

Thank you for your efforts @jcdr428! You're doing a great job!
Now you bring the profiles back to life from the realm of the dead ... the nickname "j" stands for "Jesus", doesn't it?

I had discarded it (profile 6) because I thought it was no longer usable!
But a confirmation seems necessary: ​​some kind soul can post the EXOPLAYER LOG of the Shield when a dvhe.06 file is playing?

Maybe there is a problem with the way you handle "stream_type". For example, the now well-known LG demo (BL+EL+RPU Single PID, dvhe.04) should present a stream_type = 0x24 and not 0x06 after being muxed with tsMuxeR despite color_description_present_flag = 0 and chroma_location_info_present = 0.


Finally, I join people who ask for the possibility to choose the most congenial DV profile: the dvhe.05 files obtained with my tool (or with DVDFab) are not standard at all (we are well aware of that) but there are devices (Apple TV, Fire Stick 4K) which can only play this type of file!
If you don't listen to this request, you force these people to use a longer procedure (mp4muxer + MP4Box) or to give money for a paid software!

So I tested @jcdr428 PR: https://github.com/justdan96/tsMuxer/pull/269

To try to understand why the 4/6 profile does not work on your TV it would be useful to examine the LOGS of the PLEX client.

I think we should push three profiles mainly:
1. Profile 4
2. Profile 5
3. Profile 7
And I know most OLED LG TVs support most DV profiles, but the chances for me or others to spend $2k are slim. Fire TV 4K Stick costs $50, Apple TV 4K and Nvidia Shield TV can be purchased under $150. All these streaming players offer perfect integration with Plex Media Server. If you care about the lossless Audio and Atmos/DTS-X, I would go to with Sony X700 or Shield TV ( although I know Shield need a software update to correct the colors ). If you don't care about the lossless audio like me, Fire TV and Apple TV 4k are perfect examples ( although Apple TV does support lossless audio though Infuse Pro ).

edit:
Profile 6 looks more promising than 4, to be honest

[Mortenjorstad]

If you use. -mode2 in yuseope tool and the latest nighlig built tsmuxer
You will then have a profile 5 that will play on Apple TV

Interesting difference between that and the playback of a DV4 file is that everything is pretty much the same up till the Renderer portion of the log. Here it is for a DV4 file:

When playing back the DV4 file, the renderer actually lists the codec as dvhe.04.06, but nothing for the DV6 file.

Hello,

Using yuseope's script (0.0.3 rev1) and tsMuxer (fork bb51a5f posted earlier, profile 6) I'm getting smooth playback with Joker on Emby on my B7. Dolby Vision is triggered.
The same configuration with US will stutter. The only difference is that US uses a FEL layer versus MEL for Joker.
I'll be trying another movie (Apocalypse Now, also FEL) and report back.

I have access to a E6 and C9 as well if someone needs something tested.

Thanks for the hard work!

[Mortenjorstad]

If you use. -mode2 in yusesope tool and the latest nighlig built tsmuxer
You will then have a profile 5 that will play on Apple TV

Do you have the link to it? I would appreciate it

@Deihnyx, I had my suspicions that the stuttering may be a cause of MEL/FEL as well. Will also try a few more MEL/FEL titles today in prof 6 if there is time.

[mulucy]

If you use. -mode2 in yusesope tool and the latest nighlig built tsmuxer
You will then have a profile 5 that will play on Apple TV

Do you have the link to it? I would appreciate it

thank you!

@Deihnyx, I had my suspicions that the stuttering may be a cause of MEL/FEL as well. Will also try a few more MEL/FEL titles today in prof 6 if there is time.

So hm... I've got some interesting results... I guess?

Using Emby with latest server version (4.4.0.40)

Joker MEL:
E6 (2016 model): Smooth with profile 6 when using AC3 track (direct play), HDR while using ATMOS (direct streaming, expected)
B7 (2017 model): Smooth with profile 6 when using AC3 track (direct play), HDR while using ATMOS (direct streaming, expected)
C9 (2019 model): Stutters with profile 6 when using AC3 track (direct play), HDR while using ATMOS (direct streaming, expected)

US / Apocalypse Now (FEL)
E6 (2016 model): Stutters with profile 6 when using AC3 track (direct play) with green layer, HDR while using ATMOS (direct streaming, expected)
B7 (2017 model): Stutters with profile 6 when using AC3 track (direct play), HDR while using ATMOS (direct streaming, expected)
C9 (2019 model): Stutters with profile 6 when using AC3 track (direct play), HDR while using ATMOS (direct streaming, expected)

Somehow the support is worse on the newer TV. Maybe cause support for profile 6 was removed?
I'll try with a few more FEL when I can figure out which one of my movies have it.

I would want to try direct playing from internal player but I'm not sure how to mount a samba / nfs share on LG, I'll look it up.

Just tried another MEL title (Doctor Sleep) in prof 6 and had no stutters on my B9. Joker also was not stuttering on my B9, maybe it's something with the new C9 with its superior processor? I can try another FEL title next just to make sure.

For direct playing from the internal player, you can always set up a DLNA server on wherever your media is stored and have the TV access it from there. That's what I've been doing, but it probably wouldn't make much of a difference since the TV Emby/Plex apps are simply leveraging off of the internal player anyways.

Edit: Just tried Anna (FEL) with profile 6 and it stuttered as expected on my B9.

Maybe there is a problem with the way you handle "stream_type". For example, the now well-known LG demo (BL+EL+RPU Single PID, dvhe.04) should present a stream_type = 0x24 and not 0x06 after being muxed with tsMuxeR despite color_description_present_flag = 0 and chroma_location_info_present = 0.

@yusesope BL video_signal_type_present_flag = 0 => colour_primaries = 2 (unspecified), transfer_characteristics = 2 (unspecified), matrix_coeffs = 2 (unspecified) means there is no backward compatibility. SDR is 1, 1, 1, HDR10 is 9, 16, 9.

According to "DolbyVisionProfilesLevels_v1_3_2_2019_09_16.pdf":
3.1.2 Primary Dolby Vision PID Carrying a non-SDR and non-HDR Compliant BL substream
3.1.2.1 Stream Type
The value of stream_type shall be set to 0x06 (indicating PES packets containing private data).

Am I reading it wrong ?

Edit: stream_type = 0x06 basically means that the stream shall be handled by the DV SoC only -or at least this is the way I see it. Note that before tsMuxer was open-source, all HEVC streams were 0x06 ! That was one of my first commits...

Edit 2: the second reason for the stream_type 0x06 is that the DoVi descriptor is not part of the HDMV 0x24 descriptor -and I have to keep the HDMV main (loop 1) descriptor to keep compatibility with PGS, ac3/eac3 and ac3/TrueHD.

Thanks a lot for doing all these tests..
I'm having the exact same outcome.

I don't know if Gemini Man (HFR) is a FEL or MEL movie.. but that one was working when I merged it in mode 1 and used a broken/bugged rev of TsMuxer which gave it (wrongly) profiel 08.

Another question, did you also test a FEL movie using an usb-stick/drive?

Gemini man is FEL according to list here: https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.php?t=276448. Have not tried playing off of usb yet as I don't currently have a thumb drive big enough to fit a full movie, but I don't suspect that could be the source of the problem since if it's an issue with bandwidth, you'd expect the stuttering to be more randomized rather than evenly timed between pauses.
