Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

[Grencola]

I still use chapters! to the point of digging up an old plex metadata plugin to add them onto ts files during the import process

oh wow!

[tr000]

technically yes, but mkvtoolnix needs to add the proper dv descriptors first similar to what tsmuxer has done. right now it makes an mkv fine but loses the dv data in process.

This is basically just what mp4muxer does (for an mp4), that's why the actual .exe is so small.

No Atmos in .mp4 so a profile 5 mkv with Atmos would be ideal.

Yeah, just throw it in TSMuxer like Grencola said.

Pretty much, though with .ts / .m2ts now working with dv I'm not sure we need mkv. I suppose PGS subtitles and proper chapter support is handy to some people (pgs to srt is such a simple conversion, and who even uses chapters? ).

I agree, even the atrocious Roku Media Player plays .ts files. Though, It doesn't change much for me since it doesn't do DTS or True-HD, just E-AC3.

I use a shield, but the Plex app on LG TV's will not play a .ts DV file. So mkv would help others

Why not use LG's native player (via DLNA)? My ancient LG BH4120s plays .ts files so I'd think the current TVs would as well.

Not with Dolby Vision.

So after 10+ hours of agonizing labor, Jumanji did not work through any method in mkv form or m2ts form. I will begrudgingly watch it in HDR10.

are you referring to the first or second one? only the first one has dolby vision, the sequel is hdr10 only

The first one.

If the moive contains more than one m2ts file, use tsmuxer to merge those m2ts files first.

Noted, thanks mate!

Plays M2TS though.

Just drag the mlps in to tsmuxer that will auto merge all the files on output.

whats the reason to go for each profile? what is the best to take with mp4muxer? i'm using now profile 7 on my LG C9.

Chapters are particularly useful in concert videos, as they delimit each song. How does one "add them onto ts files". I own a Plex Pass.

Drive the remux from the mpls playlist (easily found by using eac3to ".../eac3to a:"). And if using tsmuxer already, why not directly create a DV/Atmos compliant M2TS file directly?

Whatever works on your device.


But seriously—just keep it simple. You'll drive yourself crazy looking for the best profile, audio codec, stream container, etc. etc. The only thing that separates profiles in terms of quality is use of BL, EL, and RPU, and how it affects FEL and MEL (Google), but even that is highly debatable. Theoretically one more accurately represented the 12-bit DV mastering color space but I still doubt there is a meaningful difference on current hardware.
