I have not yet been able to tell the difference between the MEL and FEL versions of your linked files on my LG internal player when muxed to Profile 7 MP4.
I am not able to properly create a DV TS file for my 2019 Shield from either of the sources that you linked. For some reason, I am not able to mux either set of HEVC files with your tool and finish at "100% 100% 100%", and the subsequent TS files crash in Plex after a few seconds.
In this case (and only in this case), don't worry about the counters: my tool is designed to handle huge files (and not test files of a few MB). v0.0.4a returns a correct file and I am sure that mp4muxer can generate playable files on TV (both ST-DL and DT-DL). But
all this work is useless: the "differences" I referred to in my previous post are to be found on a binary level, digging between 0s and 1s, and not looking at the TV screen.

Regarding making FEL and MEL Dolby vision files..
For FEL titles do I need to use mode 1 (BL+EL+RPU) of yusecopes tool in order to retain all necessary Dolby vision data?
For MEL titles are both mode 1 (BL+EL+RPU) and mode 2 (BL+RPU) suitable to retain all necessary Dolby vision data?

I guess if it's a MEL title you could also use mode 2 (BL+RPU) because the enhanced layer contains metadata only.

Mode 1(BL+EL+RPU) and tsmuxer 04.06 for FEL titles
Mode 2(BL+RPU) and tsmuxer 05.06 for MEL titles
No, this type of use is wrong.
"mode 1" (default) should ALWAYS be used (regardless of FEL and MEL).
However, not all platforms can handle movies generated from the HEVC raw stream in "mode 1".
Devices, such as the Apple TV 4K, which can only play Dolby Vision profile 5 and 8 files must resort to "mode 2".
The files produced in "mode 2" are technically wrong (the topic has been debated in this thread many times, use the "search" box).
The use of this mode should be reserved for those devices that are unable to handle files produced in mode 1.
I don't encourage using "mode 2" (I just wanted to offer a free feature compared to DVDFab).
"mode 2" should only be used in "extrema ratio"
