I also haven't been able to get the workflow to launch yet, I'm getting error messages (see attached file).
It's possible I don't have MPC installed correctly, I downloaded the portable version and put it in the tools folder. But not sure if it matters whether I use the 64 or 32 bit version, or what the name for the MPC folder should be.
Thank you!

I fixed your file but it still has CMV4.0 and because the original was just for two frames, my fixed rpu generated static L3 metadata: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Nvixsu ... sp=sharing

L2 trim pass seems fine in the fixed version:

Only FEL, the dynamic metadata are not used and no it won't trigger DV but you can watch in HDR10 or SDR.
It looks like your input(p7 ST I guess?) failed to be demuxed with dovi_tool.
here's the tool pack: https://mega.nz/file/VedxEIBB#bfjgWeSpr ... NCIC372rQQ

there's no L2 error on my copy of Elf (p5 iTunes)...
why do you share the XML instead of the rpu? maybe you're using an old version of dovi_meta(tool that converts rpu to XML)?

I don't provide support, it's in VapourSynth: https://github.com/OpusGang/awsmfunc/bl ... e.py#L1905

I've tried the default generated script as well as applying the 100-nit L2 trim to DoViBaker through "trimPq=2081, targetMaxNits=100, targetMinNits=1". Both look too washed out compared to CAH's 100-nit conversion. https://slow.pics/c/l7iEtcS3

You can use 7-5-3 (madVR +MPC) which has the best HDR to SDR tone mapping anyway.
