Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

[Tomas]

On your zidoo are you using the vs10 or not?
You tried to mux with mkvtoolnix your mp4 + your soundtracks (BL_EL_RPU.mp4 + atmos audio)

Hi, I have it set to AUTO. I can't open the mp4muxer program or I don't know how to do it via the command line.

1. You go to your folder where you have decompressed mp4muxer
2. In the window at the top you click on: File --> Open Windows PowerShell --> Open Windows PowerShell as administrator
3. You type in the console : .\mp4muxer -i path\to\BL_EL_RPU.hevc --dv-profile 8 --dv-bl-compatible-id 1 -o path\to\TEST_FILE.mp4
PS : path\to\BL_EL_RPU.hevc = location of your file BL_EL

Please, I'm probably doing something stupid. You wouldn't advise me how to write a path. The BL_EL_RPU.HEVC file is saved on disk "G" in the "mp4muxer" folder. Please how do I write the path to the mp4 conversion

As a partially deaf person I heavily rely on subtitles but so far I have not been able to get subtitles working on any of my DV files. Currently I am using following method:

Use tsmuxer to get 'bl' and 'el' Audio and Subtitles (PGS) files
Generate a bl-el-rpu file using 'yusesope' tool (mode 1)
Use tsmuxer to Mux bl-el-rpu+Audio+Subtitle and generate a .ts file.

The said files (format 4) works flawlessly with DV on my TV via USB HDD but the subtitles just wont work no matter what method I try. So far I have tried renaming the sub file similar to movie name, putting the sub file and movie in same folder, converting PGS to SRT, but nothing works. Even MPC-HC refuses to show subtitles on these files.

Is this a .ts file types restriction or am I doing something wrong here? Please help me out. Thanks.

I can't personally verify, but this post seems to say TS doesn't support PGS when using DV -
viewtopic.php?f=12&t=18602&p=85286#p85286

That sucks, so do I have any other options? Even with MP4 I cannot seem to get subtitles working and I have used the utility posted by 'Grencola' and method posted on Page 1.

"Automated" BL+EL+RPU.hevc creation for yusesope tool

Here is my solution for an "automated" BL+EL+RPU.hevc creation for device which plays only Single Track Dual Layer MEL films. Because
the use of the original MUX_AND_CONVERT_TO_MEL.bat and DEMUX_AND_CONVERT_TO_MEL.bat in case of FEL films always faild. Films are hanged after a few mins or they was choppy after a few mins.

Here is a code for a simple .bat file to do the same. This is a simple batch run for FEL to MEL via ffmpeg demuxing and muxing by the tool.
In the last step you can set everything manually in tsMUXER.

Input and output paths needs to be configures for your machine. It is a simple "Search and change" with any kind of notepad apps.


When the process is finished it opens up tsMuxer with the BL_EL_RPU.hevc and with the original media file. From you can set audio channels and subs manually and individually for each movies.

Run command with drag and drop media file onto batch file.

Code: Select all

Just rename the attached .txt to .bat

Hello, I tested on MIDWAY FR UHD Dolby Vision . Playback on the internal player of the Panasonic HZ1500E TV
Process below I used recommended versions of all software

created BL.hevc and EL.hevc using ffmpeg

MUX_AND_CONVERT_TO_PROFILE_81.bat to create BL_EL_RPU.hevc

mp4muxer with BL_EL_RPU.hevc to create .mp4

The final MP4 is well read in DV, I watched 1 hour. No image concerns.
I tested by doing the procedure to make an mkv and add my soundtracks (DTS HD)
The MKV is read without problem but in HDR PQ

I don't know how to add the DTS tracks to the mp4 (to make an mp4 file with DTS soundtracks).
I tested to mux with FFmpeg but suddenly I have an mp4 without DV (under media info)

Pour le mkv je pense pas que mon lecteur interne puisse le lire en DV, ça vient du lecteur
For the mkv I don't think my internal player can read it in DV, it comes from the player

To add dts/dts-hd to an mp4 file
- first demux it as audio.mp4. exemple: ffmpeg.exe -i 00058.m2ts -map 0:0 -c copy BL.hevc -map 0:1 -c copy EL.hevc -map 0:7 -c copy audio.mp4
- then add the audio mp4 to your mp4_dv file with mp4box. exemple : mp4box.exe -add mp4_dv.mp4:rate=0 -add audio.mp4#audio:lang=fr-FR -no-iod mp4_dv_movie.mp4

C'est bizarre. Le débit vidéo de ton fichier Midway est trés faible (35Mb/s) comparé à ma version dvhe.07.06. Il a été réencodé ?

Hello, I tested on MIDWAY FR UHD Dolby Vision . Playback on the internal player of the Panasonic HZ1500E TV
Process below I used recommended versions of all software

created BL.hevc and EL.hevc using ffmpeg

MUX_AND_CONVERT_TO_PROFILE_81.bat to create BL_EL_RPU.hevc

mp4muxer with BL_EL_RPU.hevc to create .mp4

The final MP4 is well read in DV, I watched 1 hour. No image concerns.
I tested by doing the procedure to make an mkv and add my soundtracks (DTS HD)
The MKV is read without problem but in HDR PQ

I don't know how to add the DTS tracks to the mp4 (to make an mp4 file with DTS soundtracks).
I tested to mux with FFmpeg but suddenly I have an mp4 without DV (under media info)

Pour le mkv je pense pas que mon lecteur interne puisse le lire en DV, ça vient du lecteur
For the mkv I don't think my internal player can read it in DV, it comes from the player

To add dts/dts-hd to an mp4 file
- first demux it as audio.mp4. exemple: ffmpeg.exe -i 00058.m2ts -map 0:0 -c copy BL.hevc -map 0:1 -c copy EL.hevc -map 0:7 -c copy audio.mp4
- then add the audio mp4 to your mp4_dv file with mp4box. exemple : mp4box.exe -add mp4_dv.mp4:rate=0 -add audio.mp4#audio:lang=fr-FR -no-iod mp4_dv_movie.mp4

C'est bizarre. Le débit vidéo de ton fichier Midway est trés faible (35Mb/s) comparé à ma version dvhe.07.06. Il a été réencodé ?

.\mp4muxer -i G:\mp4muxer\BL_EL_RPU.hevc --dv-profile 8 --dv-bl-compatible-id 1 -o G:\TEST_FILE.mp4

I am doing something wrong?

Thank you very much, it already works. I can ask how long does it take to convert a movie to mp4.

5mn on my pc Ryzen 9 3900x

Finally I've done it! This was my white whale. I'm so relieved my 6yr old laptop managed to power through the entire process and it works like a charm! Massive thank you to you yusesope! You're a legend mate!

Please, did anyone who has ZIDOO Z9X convert the movie to go well? So that the image does not tear?

I receive mine on Thursday, and I will test at that time. For the moment on the internal player of my Panasonic TV, the mp4 and TS files pass without problem in dolby vision.
And I saw the difference visually on the Midway film, between HDR10 and Dolby vision.
When I have the Z9x if it recognizes dolby vision files, I will try to get the information on the tv with my HDFury (I have to find out how to do it) so I will be sure that the dolby meta data is fine.
