Sony X700
sony can read DV m2ts without any modification from BDMV folder?
yes but that would be ''fake'' dolby vision. You need to remux using the latest tsMuxer in order to get real DV

use the mp4muxer for LG TV playback.. tsmuxer dual layer files will only work on the x700 and the oppo.

I merge both layers into a single hevc using yusesope's tool.
Then I add the hevc file and Dolby truehd audio using tsmuxer into a single TS container.

It will play fine on LG using Emby because you can select core ac3 5.1 audio for playback (which is part of the truehd track).

I guess that's the best way for preservation because unlike mp4muxer you can also include the he audio (and Atmos).

Guys, how do I do / what are the commands to redo a mkv remux generated by MakeMKV, but keep Dolby Vision data, using ffmpeg? Is this too complicated, or is it still not possible?
I know that MKVToolNix currently maintains the BlockAdditional data track. But I would like to do it for ffmpeg.
Thank you.

When trying to run yusesope's tool on Mac I get a syntax error. Is there something I need to do first to get it to run? Thanks

For those still following, apparently the minix u22-xj just received a firmware update with much improved DV support (https://theminixforum.com/index.php?thr ... post-26931 and subsequent posts). Looks like dual-layer (maybe dual track?) profile 7 mp4s are working. MKVs with the native player seems to be also supported as well. I'm not sure if this is the same support that already exists on the ugoos player since its the same chipset, but the next question of course is whether the colors are being displayed correctly.

i'm turned to the M9702. because there gonna not be a better solution that plays DV correct with HD-Audio. i doubt how far DV plays correct with all the muxes in this topic. i mean the colors, single layer etc. beside that M9702 (oppo203) is really a beast that does everything like DV, HDR10+, Atmos, DTS:X. I think there not will be a mediaplayer like this. if there is? you pay €600+. i'm also negatif about the future of DV with mkv, kodi and other stuff.

it's not about the menu's, but the thing about ''untouched'' = the safest way without doubts to play DV. but i keep following this thread. it's very interesting what people being capable of :D

Safest? Are you suggesting that mp4 or ts remux are not the real deal?
I have compared the dual-layer profile 7 remux ( mp4 or TS) with bluray disc and it is identical in every aspect. Just like an MKV remux of any bluray.

Yes, there might be some question about the single layer (rpu + EL) files but definitely not with the dual-layer profile 7 files.

yeah, with the eye there is no difference. i also say that before in this thread. but i'm not sure if that is enough? what happens on the background in technical way? i think we shall only know with professional tools...

I agree..

This may not be a professional tool but I think if there was a difference in colors and brightness, my camera would capture it.
see this comparison: https://screenshotcomparison.com/comparison/6043

I did this comparison with many movies and never spotted any difference.
