BTW, you guys recommend a great alternative too VLC?
VLC has being a nightmare as of late...
paid or free doesnt really matter to me

Dv web dl’s movies in resolve.
Testing all export options to see which 1 produces the best or identical reproduction, same file size as well, even tested hevc 444 main 10 which no device can decode yet, but plays well on the pc,
Guardians of the galaxy holiday special (kbacon) dv/WB/dl
Here is a small test sample of the conversion.
Mdl on the encode is incorrect on purpose.
There are a few things i see in some of the results
I’m getting, both negative & positive feedback is welcomed.
Color range from Full to Limited plus yuv is tricky
I’ve seen banding in some scenes on 10bit yuv on some of the tests. No banding on raw exports samples. EDIT: banding solved.
In my opinion results are promising and looks better than the hdr10 version my sample is 4000nits colors are on point with the exception of the brightness shift,rpu is original p5 to p8.1 Looks more like a natural p5.

Thanks for the information. I should have mentioned I was asking about FEL playback which the LG C1 cannot play.

I've placed an order (but cancelled) an order for the Oppo-203 clone and also returned the Sony x800m2 because of that bug and I was wondering if any playback method existed w/o any bugs (for the LG C1).

This is an old post, but the answer to your question is the 2019 Shield TV Pro. The "red push" being claimed is utter nonsense. Simply put, it is something concocted by just a few members of this forum.

Disregarding red push, the 2019 Shield TV Pro can process FEL?

hi I have a CX
back in the day, the tv was running DV7 with mel, but now it plays only HDR over USB, but when i mux it to P8 it works again, is this normal ?

i think a new FW update from the TV is the problem.

It will play it but the enhancement layer will be ignored.

Has the firetv cube gen 3 now surpassed the Shield as the best player for DV MKVs as it now supports bitstreaming? It has better DV support, right? (does it use the EL? or also just the RPUs, but better color accuracy?) It doesn't have gigabit ethernet, but the wifi 6E could conceptually compensate for that. I'm wondering what others think.

If I'm not mistaken the latest Cube does not process FEL. There seem to be some audio problems too. I haven't read the whole thread yet, but at AVSforum issues are mentioned about Dolby MAT not always being output and DTS-HD throughput not working.

Hi ! Is it possible to use the dovi_script tool of @RESET_9999 to create a Dolby vision profile 8 mkv and not a ts file ?

Certainly, you just need to modify the script by setting the "Choose a muxer" option for tsmuxer.popup to "NO" and mkvtoolnix.popup to "YES". You can set any other ts options to "NO" as well.

There is nothing wrong with the Shield. It is still the best option.

I'm trying to hybrid a HDR10 DCP Rip and a DV RPU. Problem is, they're of by a few frames. Is it true I don't need to calculate the frame difference anymore and align the two? That's not quite clear to me.

Edit: The HDR10 DCP Rip is 1 frame behind the DV RPU. Do I need to duplicate or remove 1 frame?
