Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

[RESET_9999]

yes, it's a known issue with the x700... You can only play 1 TS DV file without rebooting the player.

Has anyone had some profile 5 movies just not play on the shield? I've made a few profile 5 movies lately, which have worked great, and others do nothing. The ones that don't work trigger dolby vision on the TV, but the plex video player is just in a paused state. I can skip forward, but then it just sits there at that frame and refuses to play, no audio either. An example with this behavior is Mission Impossible Fallout, and Saving Private Ryan. Not sure what's going wrong, everything seems fine in tsMuxer and yusesope's tool.

I have encountered this behavior with Plex on Fire TV 4K Stick with profile 5 videos, profile 6 works fine. Don't own the Shield yet, but profile 5 also works on Apple TV 4K. I guess it has to do with Plex itself. I have given up submitting problems to Plex, they don't care tbh

It's weird that some are working perfectly in profile 5 for me. Is there a version of tsMuxer that makes a profile 6 file? If not, how are you making them?

This is how I tried to use yusesope's tool on macos, version 0.0.2 is the only I found:

Code: Select all

python /Volumes/Data/bl_el_rpu_builder_temp_version_revision_2.py -bl /Volumes/Data/bl.hevc -el /Volumes/Data/el.hevc -of /Volumes/Data/full.hevc 

this is what I get:

Code: Select all

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Volumes/Data/bl_el_rpu_builder_temp_version_revision_2.py", line 6, in <module>
    import queue
ImportError: No module named queu

Any Idea why?

When I try to install queue:

Code: Select all

 pip install queue 

I get this:

Code: Select all

DEPRECATION: Python 2.7 reached the end of its life on January 1st, 2020. Please upgrade your Python as Python 2.7 is no longer maintained. pip 21.0 will drop support for Python 2.7 in January 2021.

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement queue (from versions: none)

Can somebody help me?

You're on the wrong version of python

For those who want to use the command line (on Windows, MacOS and Linux), you can use your version of Python (with python >= 3) but you must first install "bitstring"

Code: Select all

pip install bitstring

Great tool, @yusesope, thank you!

I have a question - would it be possible (and not too complicated) to reverse what it does?
For example, if I have a final.hevc file with BL+EL+RPU, it would be awesome if it could split it into two (BL.hevc, EL.hevc) or even three (BL.hevc, EL.hevc, RPU) files.

Thank you so much it's working now!

Why not just keep the BL.hevc and EL.hevc which you would need to use the tool anyway? BL is the first video layer and EL is the second layer, you get them by demuxing the .m2ts file

It has a micro USB port and a USB C port. I'm guessing the micro USB port is for power which leaves the USB C port for an ethernet adapter/USB C to USB 3 micro b cable (external hard drive) or a hub with both ethernet and USB ports.

Would running Android mean it may be possible for app developers to work out a way to pass through HD audio to an AVR/soundbar?

Yea, it's basically just like the firestick 4k. it has an ethernet adapter that works the same way. but it's only 10/100mbps so not gigabit. and no, again like the firestick, if hd-audio isn't supported in the firmware, it's not going to be able to passthrough anything more than dd+.

USB C gigabit ethernet adapters should be able to be used (providing they are compatible with Android). Ah, so the only way to get HD audio passthrough would be with custom firmware, which there may be more of a possibility happening than say with the Firestick, given the device is running Android, but it probably won't happen.
