My tool is obsolete. it made a profile 7 dv mp4 with lossy ac3 audio from a .m2ts file to play on x700 etc. but now you can just throw that m2ts straight into tsmuxer and make a dv .ts file with lossless audio + atmos.
Just to clarify it, the steps include yusecope's tool to create a DV track, correct?
nope, the x700 is capable of playing the DV tracks as is. Just need to remux it in a ts container.
Thank you for the response. I am assuming this approach is only good for Sony X700 since other players like Shield TV don't support profile 7. In that case, we need to use yusecope's tool. Correct me if I am wrong, please

you're both correct. however you can skip yusesope's tool if you rip your movie with the new makemkv (or dvdfab) first, before putting it through tsmuxer.

Sorry i dont understand that, how does new makemkv help in creating a single layer file?

edit: i tried it and seems like it created single layer hmm, is it "correct" or dvdfabmethod?

@grencola, which profile uses your tool? or is this question irrelevant?

How did you achieved that? Do I need to tweak settings somewhere in tsMuxer? I used w64-nightly-2020-04-19--02-12-02 and tried to generate a dv .ts, with those settings:

But what came out is (no dv detected):
https://drive.google.com/file/d/103ylhd ... sp=sharing

What am I doing wrong?

Does anyone know why some movies have a very light DV layer (usually under 100MB) and some others have a much larger one (~5-7 GB) ?

So, I tried Saving Private Ryan with last MakeMKV, muxing with tsMuxer (profile 6 and 4). With 6 no video, only audio. With 4 same "blinking" effect both on Plex and MX Player, I really think it's a Shield issue.

correct. the shield has its own weird color and stutter bugs etc, but all the dv info is retained. comparing the disc to the .ts on x700 is identical.

Yea, that's MEL vs FEL (minimal vs full enhancement layer). mel carries just the rpu metadata where fel carries the full 12-bit info (debatable if needed as nothing is 12 bit yet).

you're using both latest apps? the latest plex beta breaks dv, so you need to use the version just before it.

I used the latest official versions, about Plex both old and new exoplayer, same result. It's just that movie, for the others seems to work fine.

Ah, ok. Yea it's always a pain when there's an odd one out that doesn't work, yet your process is the same. it has a decently sized FEL (6mb/s) which is the only thing I can think of.

Yep, that's right! I just would like to figure out a way to address this issue with that specific movie, it's just the only element of disturb so far.

I've remuxed (TsMuxer 4.06 fix) MKVs created with MakeMKV 1.15.1 and I have not been able to get them to play on the Sony x700. I have tried via a USB drive, and via the DLNA player (Plex) and I have gotten a black screen in both cases. I have tried two separate Vision movies and it is the same experience both times. Anyone have luck?

on the x700, only the MEL(small layer) DV movies will work using that method.
Just remux directly your uhd-bd to dual layer TS with atmos and subtitles. No need of makemkv with the x700
