Is there a current best player?

I've looked at RESET_9999's spreadsheet and it seems like all of them have several problems?

For DV rip, the x800m2 is the best player with fewer issues.

Wow, it’s as simple as that! Thanks, I thought it had to go through some processing before txMuxer!

Sony x800m2 handles DT-DL m2ts files beautifully, but struggles with many ST-DL files for some reason.

Thanks for this. Fel is discarded on my a95k via app of default media player .Even if it is in dolby vision mode. I have tried every container (DL-ST) exept mp4.

Thanks for this. Fel is discarded on my a95k via app of default media player .Even if it is in dolby vision mode. I have tried every container (DL-ST) exept mp4.
Use Emby, if still have problem, I assure you is not the media player. I cast to x800 which cannot process dv in mkv so I always use ts to preserve lossless audio as well. Some DL-ST will freeze black, just keep everything DL-DT.

Thank you, YES! That was the case, I had old ffmpeg. I'm happy to report Flac audio works with p7 DT-DL in MP4 container :) (Edit. On my LG B8)
Compression level 0 you set for flac encode is a good choice, I compared with level 5 on 2,5h movie and the size difference was only 200 mb.

However, the dts-hd ma track got discarded upon conversion, am I missing a setting to keep the original audio track?

For injecting both HDR10+ and DV into the same BL, does it matter which you do first?

@RESET_9999 Do i need to change something in your DaVinci preset for DV generation in 18.6 or is everything the same?
Now I have these settings:

Thanks!

FLAC/LPCM lower volume FIX

Hi,
I did some more testing with Flac audio. For some movies after converting trueHD/dts-hd to Flac (i think it applies to lpcm too) the resulting audio track is significantly lower volume. Probably because dts contains metadata that instructs the receiver by how much it should boost the signal and flac/lpcm is just raw audio information. For example Gladiator is a movie for which flac/lpcm is 4,5 dB lower than it could be.
I found a good way to safely increase the signal with ffmpeg. First you have to find by how many dB you can losslessly increase volume with this command:

Code: Select all

ffmpeg -i video.avi -af "volumedetect" -vn -sn -dn -f null /dev/null
This outputs information about how much dB you can increse the volume without going into clipping. For example:

[Parsed_volumedetect_0 @ 0x7f8ba1c121a0] mean_volume: -16.0 dB
[Parsed_volumedetect_0 @ 0x7f8ba1c121a0] max_volume: -5.0 dB
[Parsed_volumedetect_0 @ 0x7f8ba1c121a0] histogram_0db: 87861

Important is only the max_volume
Then use the command to increase the volume by max_volume amount:

Code: Select all

  ffmpeg -i input.wav -af "volume=5dB" output.wav
This command only boosts the overall signal, there is no normalization happening, so it's still a lossless process.

Is it possible to incorporate this process into dovi_scripts @RESET_9999
You can find more information about it under this link (Option 3)

This may have been answered somewhere within this thread but since makemkv is able to rip the dolby vision layer is it possible to create a dolby vision playable mkv file through mkv or do you have use scripts?
