There's some good info in there. I'm surprised the Shield supports it.

must be an LLDV thing because nothing on my Shield for L8 in tv-led DV.

Well your TV doesn't support it either, so it makes sense.

ha yes, because in LLDV the player does the tonemapping. I didnt think of that. Will test again once i get my C2 soonish

Do you think this is a good solution to share the external hard drive that contains movie files between the x700 and the pc?

Press one button to switch to pc, copy and paste the bmdv folder to root, press the button to switch back to x700, watch the movie. Save the time from the constant unplugging/replugging when you want to change movies.

sounds like a good idea. let us know if it works.

Hi all! Please help me. I'd like to edit L5 for frames between 0-2117 and 2590-4428. Can I make it with one JASON or I should use two? One for 0-2117 and one for 2590-4428? Thanks!

I assume all the frames within each group will have the same edits. i.e. 0-2117 0,0,0,0 and 2590-4428 0,0,280,280. If so, yes one .json should work.

One thing I'm worried is that connecting through the switch may cut down on the usb 2.0 speed and affect the bitrate of the movie. Is there a way to tell if a movie is not playing at maximum bitrate?

it cant live cutdown the bit rate if there are problems it would be stutters a read speed of about 12MBs should be enough for any UHD usb 2 can do about 40MBs in real world use

Has anyone tried playing the Dolby Amaze and Leaf demo file? I'm playing them on my x700 connected to the denon x3700h but there's no sound. They are originally mkv files and I converted them to ts but still no sound.

Hmm so the x700 can't play that...

Is there any other way to play these files?

you just need to add the core back into TrueHD, nothing new and it's been explained many many times in this thread. . you can do that with eac3to or thdmerge.
or with my script:

I checked it with more players and TVs, and the results are here: https://onedrive.live.com/view.aspx?res ... Vgr1mbxiSQ

So the appleTV really only supports P5 dynamic metadata...

Do you still have the GTV Chromecast ? is L2 working in LLDV?
You're the second person to say the Shield has no L2 response in LLDV.

I tried Ugoos AM6B Plus (S922X-J), it only handles L1 and L2.
