@RESET_9999 Hi quick question, so using your scripts its not possible to convert DV P8/7 to P5? Is that because of the different colorspace?

thanks

Here you go https://mega.nz/folder/fo8yHCKa#BMc78ichXyiEB1OKyqA0lw
Would you happen to know if this FW is for Ugoos AM6-b only?

I still have a neglected AM6 Plus with dualboot CoreElec stashed away somewhere.
Your am6 plus will work with that fw : )>

great analysis as usual @quietvoid ... I need to try to understand your vs-nlq script (assuming that's what you used to check FEL)...
Couldn’t have said it better. @quietvoid doing gods work over here :lol:

It seems the Koch Media Lamb release might not play in Dolby Vision normally: https://github.com/justdan96/tsMuxer/is ... 1120210769

Well, you can force any DV profile (wrong one included) with the mp4muxer modes.

I don't believe there is a way to simply add black bars to an existing file. You would need to encode the file with the correct padding values. Then make sure to edit the DV L5 metadata to account for the black bars. There is always the potential for quality loss from encoding a file already encoded from a full rip.

you must answer y or n to this question:
"Do you want to crop RPU... y or n ? (y when HDR10-BL is cropped) and press enter..."
If you just skip, the L5 JSON will be missing information and the script will fail.

Oh ok was assuming there is a default, seems to work now.
Maybe add a extra warning/repeat the question, if there cant be a default, so this is more clear?

Thanks

Yes, all the other modes have a warning and it seems I forgot for that mode. I Will had it in next release.

Code: Select all

if "%cropL5_path%"=="" echo Must choose y or n, press a key to try again... & rmdir /Q /S "%TEMP%" & pause & goto :start.over

Sorry to hear. Nevertheless many thanks for testing already. I didn't update yet.
I haven't used my Ugoos for a long time so I'm not up-to-date with developement of both CoreElec and Android. Isn't there a special Kodi DV build for Android that maybe performs better on DV playback with this new FW? Or does the new Android FW already provide with best Kodi version?
