If I used DVDFab to backup a UHD disc to an .ISO, can I use MakeMKV 1.15.2 to make a MKV that now has full DV + TrueHD/Atmos content? Does DVDFab do the dual layer to single layer conversion so that DV rips will soon playback, for example, on the nVidia Shield 2019 that (from my understanding) can't play dual layer rips? What if I wanted to playback on a 4K ATV? Does the audio need any modifications to playback Atmos tracks?

Great! If you need help with GitHub, let me know. It's really not that bad once you get the hang of it.yusesope wrote: ↑Thu Jul 23, 2020 9:16 pmHello beautiful people!
Just a small update: I revised my code (Exoplayer) after the release of version 1.15.2.
@shawnc22 has just tested (on the new Shield) an apk that i have prepared.
The mkv test file is played correctly and Dolby Vision is successfully triggered.
In the next few days I will release a test version of my apk here on the forum.
At the same time I will try to understand how the h e l l GitHub works in order to be able to review the code together with @shawnc22 and @steffenmanden and present the finished work to the Exoplayer team.

I have a SHIELD question. When I made all my TS files I made them profile 4. Now MakeMKV is ripping them to profile 7. Is the SHIELD going to be able to play those?
EDIT:
What I mean is this....
ts: Dolby Vision, Version 1.0, dvhe.04.06, BL+EL+RPU
mkv: Codec: MpegH HEVC Main10@L5.1 (dvhe.07.06 BL+EL+RPU FEL)

Yusecope has mentioned in the past that he thinks when the Shield decoder encounters an unsupported profile (7 in this case), it will look at the raw video stream and fallback to a similar supported profile for playback. From testing with TS files in the past, the same video stream when stored as either 4 (supported), or 6/7 (unsupported) all work without issue and produces the same image. The mkv's I've tried so far from 1.15.1 and 1.15.2 all have worked despite being labeled as profile 7, so it does seem like profile labeling is not that important as far as the Shield is concerned. Now that @RESET_9999 has found a workaround for the red push issue, the last bit of mystery is to just determine what exact the Shield is doing when playing FEL titlesSamuriHL wrote: ↑Fri Jul 24, 2020 12:51 amI have a SHIELD question.

Excellent. I'm hoping FEL "accidentally works" even though we know it's not supposed to be supported. And yes, REST_9999's solution worked for me, as well, so, I'm just waiting for a player. I'm reripping a bunch of titles right now as we speak. It's very nice to have rip lock begone(tm).shawnc22 wrote: ↑Fri Jul 24, 2020 1:11 am

What's the workaround for the red push issue? I have been following this thread for awhile and don't recall that discussion.

Just to be clear, and sure i'm not missing anything: RESET_9990s solution for red push involves buing a vertex right?SamuriHL wrote: ↑Fri Jul 24, 2020 1:15 amExcellent.

I wasn't as smart. And it IS torturing my drives. I keep forgetting these discs don't age well and every time I have to pull them off the shelf they get harder and harder to read. I just don't have the space to store them all as ISO's, even temporarily til we get the DV situation sorted out. So here I am, ripping away. LOL I had to throttle the NS60's a bit. I'm still learning where the sweet spot is with these things.

Hey all,
Just want to make sure I understand.
Currently if we use the new MakeMKV we will get a MKV that supports DV.
Will this play via Plex on Shield or native LG app?
If not currently, is it the expectation that is what will happen?

Not currently. They need to update the players. This is the second step in a 3 step process to getting where we all want to be. First the mkv standard had to be finished. That is complete. Then makemkv had to be updated to output to the new standard. That is also now complete so we can rerip our dv movies to mkv. The final step is player support. This will take some time before that happens. No one knows for sure how long.

For the Exoplayer APK, does this replace the version used by Plex on the Shield 2019?
