So it’s the same a playing a DV MKV on a zidoo or dune? FEL is discarded and only the rpu is used?

yes FEL is discarded but know that not every FEL movie can be converted to P8 (or played on non-fel devices) because some of them are expanding the picture brightness when BL and FEL are decoded by the player.
So the DV metadata in the RPU is meant to be played with the FEL brightness ONLY. Playing these FEL movies on a non-fel device will result in an image darker than the intended look.

Here's a list of FEL movies that expand brightness (still looking into my library to find more):

no , not without baking the EL into the BL. (require re-encoding)

RESET_9999 wrote: Sat Apr 15, 2023 3:41 pm no, I mean the EL and BL are re-encoded together which results in a new BL that will work properly with the original RPU(converted to P8).

like this...

BL+EL baked + original rpu converted to P8:

Hi, need help, trying to figure out the source of the red push problem on the Shield tv.
I need to do a DV test, but only with L1, remove the rest, how to do it right. Is there some kind of utility?

it's not a metadata problem and anyway, the bluray Doctor Sleep only has a 100nits trim pass which is not used obviously in DV playback.
if you still want to try, just generate dv with madvr and this will get you metadata with just L1.

perfect sample to test it: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PUwrol ... share_link
also very noticeable on quietvoid L11 test file: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1OwS0Te ... share_link
in fact, as soon as there's white, it's noticeable.
