For the movie The Lord of the Rings.
Which Dolby Vision profile is best suited for my TV? 5, 7, 8 or 8.1


Thanks in advance.
-Hello:

I have found this information:

Profile 5 single layer with exclusive support for Dolby Vision
Single layer 8.1 profile with HDR10 + Dolby Vision compatibility
Profile 8.2 single layer with SDR compatibility

From what i can read Profile 8.1 would be the best as it has HDR10 + Dolby Vision.

But I am a newbie at this.
If someone clears it up.

I would be very grateful, it is also of my interest since I have the same television.
B6 are (or were if firmaware did not change that ) play Dual track/dual layer DV MP4 files, so he betters keeps just using the Dolby muxer tool, profile 7, and get a Dual track/dual layer MP4 DV file.

''transfer=hdr'' is only to tell madVR: hey this file is in PQ.
it has nothing to do with ffmpeg.

I just answered that one post above.. that parameter is only for madVR...

if you want SDR screenshots, no need of FFmpeg. just tone map your HDR video straight in madvr.

This is an interesting read
According to this article dv-rgb8 is the old dv & LLDV is now mandatory on all doblyvision regular dv is not required
LLDV has it own profile as well.

I gotta dig into madvr, still no idea how to display an image with it... :mrgreen:

problem is that player-led LLDV is often less accurate than tv-led full STD DV

Blame Sony.
Dolby set out with good intentions and now hardware manufacturers are calling the shots.

the problem is the approach, in player-led LLDV the TV/sink must pass over all calibration parameters and current settings/values (whatever can be passed via HDMI, EDID etc), and based off that the player must decode the Dolby stream accordingly.

This will most likely never be as accurate as decoding full tv-led DV in the TV hardware itself with all of those parameters plus additional data that cannot or wasn't transmitted...

in a perfect world it is, but practical tests have often shown the difference

Can confirm that, no more Dual track/dual layer mp4 files with CX.
So the dolby vision files created using the method in the OP can't be played using the tv internal media player anymore? What is the alternative?

I bought the BluRay Player LG UBK90 for 138€. Now its 131,60 €.
It can play DV Dual Layer mp4.

Totally agree, had this argument with many a LLDV evangelist, with the Oppo clone you can switch between Tv led and player led, there’s is a difference, on some content it is very noticeable.

Is it a paid article by Dolby? :)
The guy only forgot to mention that due to LLDV "sinks" switch off most of their image processing, resulting in visible shittier image quality :D

there's been a lot of discussion that dolby vision causes problems for bluray authoring (bitrate limitations that vary based on potions of the disc when one gets into double and triple layers) and there's been much more uptake for it on streaming where it's easier to implement as constant bitrate limit). It could be that dolby is transitioning away from bluray based dv and putting their eggs more in the streaming basket.

Eventually, Dolby Vision and other media companies will move away from physical media. We are minority, we have to accept it. Future is with streaming. The quality gap is very narrow and the convenience of streaming it's a winner for me. I am sure with better internet speeds, we will have the option to stream lossless auido in the future.
