I too believe that there is some form of conflict between DV and HDR10+ in the same film. We must hope that Yusesope finds the solution.ray_007 wrote: Mon Oct 12, 2020 6:10 pm
Yup, I am pretty sure that there is some sort of conflict going on between HDR10+ and DV. Maybe someone here can shed some light on this? for now just wait and see.
Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

Should be trivial to just skip the HDR10+ NAL unit with yusesope's script, since the parsing is well done alreadyragico wrote: Mon Oct 12, 2020 7:21 pmI too believe that there is some form of conflict between DV and HDR10+ in the same film. We must hope that Yusesope finds the solution.
I'll send a patch to yusesope, hopefully it's good enough.
However this is destructive, it might be better to just switch a bit on/off. Will see.
Here's some test samples I've created if you guys want to test: https://mega.nz/file/NEMUCBCD#95KVXGBmS ... wFyEKlsfNs
The one with HDR10+ removed should play fine on the firestick.

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Tried both files and as you predicted, the one with HDR10+ removed played flawlessly on Firestick4k, while the other one gave black screen.quietvoid wrote: Mon Oct 12, 2020 11:21 pmray_007 wrote: Mon Oct 12, 2020 6:10 pmYup, I am pretty sure that there is some sort of conflict going on between HDR10+ and DV.

That is pretty amazing development tbh, but when you say this method is destructive does it mean that it destroys DV metadata or something? Lets hope that you and yusesope can work together to get this patch integrated into one of his tool soon

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
This is great, but honestly this and yusesope's work should be integrated into the player. This way the device can select DV: FEL, DV: MEL, HDR10+, or HDR10. This should all be done in memory on the fly and the source file should contain all the data. I hope to see this in Plex & Kodi one day.ray_007 wrote: Tue Oct 13, 2020 4:02 am That is pretty amazing development tbh, but when you say this method is destructive does it mean that it destroys DV metadata or something?

Tested and, as you predicted, the one with HDR10+ removed, play in Firestick and triggers DV.quietvoid wrote: Mon Oct 12, 2020 11:21 pm

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
It's destructive in the fact that it completely removes the HDR10+ data, and that's not reversible.ray_007 wrote: Tue Oct 13, 2020 4:02 amThat is pretty amazing development tbh, but when you say this method is destructive does it mean that it destroys DV metadata or something?

Got it. But the original disc backup stays untouched. Would like to try an entire film like Doctor Sleep.quietvoid wrote: Tue Oct 13, 2020 12:08 pmIt's destructive in the fact that it completely removes the HDR10+ data, and that's not reversible.ray_007 wrote: Tue Oct 13, 2020 4:02 amThat is pretty amazing development tbh, but when you say this method is destructive does it mean that it destroys DV metadata or something?

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Well there is always a trade-off and as long as we have the original backup that shouldn't be an issue. But in the end, like you mentioned that an On/Off switch approach would be much better.

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Using a Shield Pro 2019 and Plex, I have so far only been able to get DV playback from MEL content. Is this the best I can do at the moment with this setup? No FEL playback?

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
The 2019 Shield has no issues playing back FEL and MEL content. Whether or not it's doing it properly is a whole another discussion.bonzai84 wrote: Tue Oct 13, 2020 6:11 pm Using a Shield Pro 2019 and Plex, I have so far only been able to get DV playback from MEL content.

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
I can play both FEL and MEL on the Shield too. No way for me to know if the Shield actually decodes the full 12 bit, though. But it doesn't even matter since the colors with both profile 7 and 8 are not accurate. Both get ugly red artifacts or color shift. Only profile 5 seems to be decoded properly.shawnc22 wrote: Tue Oct 13, 2020 6:22 pmThe 2019 Shield has no issues playing back FEL and MEL content.

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.
Are these libraries still needed? I forgot to save them and the link is already dead.
I'm just asking because for some reason I've encountered 4 movies (War of the Worlds, Terminator Genisys, Terminator Dark Fate, Valerian) in a row that were unplayable on LG C8 and M9702 after converted to MEL. I tried to mux them with tsMuxeR and mp4muxer too but they were all lagging unwatchably on C8 and gave black screen on M9702. I used the latest version of yusesope's tool and it finished with 100% every time.
Has anyone had success with either of these movies?

Why do you need to go through so much trouble for playback on the oppo clone? Just play it off your folder backup, no?PapitaHD wrote: Tue Oct 13, 2020 8:01 pm Are these libraries still needed? I forgot to save them and the link is already dead.

I'm trying to make remuxes for my friend who has a Philips TV and so far if a MEL conversion played fine on my devices then it worked on his Philips as well.shawnc22 wrote: Tue Oct 13, 2020 8:16 pmWhy do you need to go through so much trouble for playback on the oppo clone?
